Shortlist note
How to play this shortlist
This list has 28 Wordle guesses; 12 are possible answers. The calculator compared 14,786 Wordle guesses against those 12 answers. Possible-answer status helps narrow a puzzle, but does not predict which word Wordle will choose.
Past Wordle answers: WRATH (August 13, 2023); WREAK (October 26, 2024); WRECK (May 20, 2026); WRIST (April 5, 2024); WRITE (August 28, 2023); WRONG (June 12, 2023); WROTE (November 25, 2021); WRUNG (January 30, 2022).
ATONE does not fit this page's clues. WRITE keeps every clue shown here and leaves an average remainder of 2.17 (4 in its worst branch). Check any additional yellow-position clues in the full Solver.
Tight family:
WR_NG
WRING, WRONG, WRUNG differ only in the third position. Trying them one at a time can use several turns; ATONE tests the family more efficiently.
