Shortlist note
How to play this shortlist
This list has 35 Wordle guesses; 15 are possible answers. The calculator compared 14,786 Wordle guesses against those 15 answers. Possible-answer status helps narrow a puzzle, but does not predict which word Wordle will choose.
Past Wordle answers: AMPLE (April 17, 2022); AMPLY (March 18, 2026); BLIMP (April 14, 2024); CLAMP (November 17, 2025); CLUMP (April 21, 2026); IMPEL (December 28, 2022); LUMPY (August 3, 2025); MAPLE (November 14, 2022); plus 5 more.
ABUSE does not fit this page's clues. PALMY keeps every clue shown here and leaves an average remainder of 1.93 (3 in its worst branch). Check any additional yellow-position clues in the full Solver.
Tight family:
PLUM_
PLUMB, PLUME, PLUMP differ only in the fifth position. Trying them one at a time can use several turns; ABUSE tests the family more efficiently.
