Shortlist note
How to play this shortlist
This list has 29 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: BRAWN (December 22, 2024); BROWN (November 25, 2024); CROWN (August 27, 2024); DRAWN (September 8, 2024); FROWN (October 25, 2024); GROWN (May 17, 2025); OWNER (September 7, 2024); RENEW (March 20, 2022); plus 3 more.
BROND does not fit this page's clues. BROWN keeps every clue shown here and leaves an average remainder of 2.2 (4 in its worst branch). Check any additional yellow-position clues in the full Solver.
Trap warning:
_ROWN
BROWN, CROWN, DROWN, FROWN, GROWN differ only in the first position. Trying them one at a time can use several turns; BROND tests the family more efficiently.
