Choose a move for this list

MAJOR leaves 1.0 matching words on average, weighted by the answer model through 2026-11-05. Every one of the 14,855 accepted guesses was compared. All 5 matching words count, including words outside the working answer pool.

This move is an information probe: it does not fit this list and cannot solve this illustrated position immediately. It tests letters in Normal Mode; a Hard Mode move must also keep your revealed hints.

To attempt the most likely matching answer now, ENEMY has a 98.6% modelled immediate solve chance and leaves 1.0415 words on average. This compares an immediate answer attempt with the information gained by the recommended move.

This illustration assumes only the shown green letters. Your grey and yellow tiles can change both the candidates and legal moves. Use the Solver for your complete board.

Hard Mode: chance of finishing in 1–5 more guesses

These exact plans keep the shown greens and each later revealed hint. They assume no earlier yellow constraints. A 100% result guarantees a finish only within this matching list and these assumptions.

How this is calculated

Primary objective: finish in the turns you have left

Can you finish `EN__Y`?

Set your guesses left, add the feedback you already have, and explore what each next guess could reveal. This planner starts with EN__Y as your green-letter clues.

Plans use our working Wordle answer pool, including previously used answers. A guarantee applies to that pool and the clues you enter.

Two-turn example: AMOVE

In normal mode, this play can cover 4 of 4 possible answers within two guesses, using the pattern alone.

See how the feedback separates the answers

Advanced: one-turn information and shortlist comparisons

These alternatives optimize how evenly one guess splits the answers. The planner above prioritizes finishing within your remaining turns.

The top-ranked splitter is shown in the shortlist note below. Add a gray or yellow clue here to recalculate after the position changes.

Previously used by Wordle: ENJOY (October 10, 2022); ENTRY (June 18, 2026); ENVOY (April 5, 2026).

Top-ranked splitter AMOVE

Average remaining: 1.0
Worst branch: 1
Information: 2.0 bits

It is a deliberate probe rather than a possible answer here: the point is to separate the remaining answers cleanly.

Hard Mode Use ENJOY instead.

AMOVE does not fit this page's clues. ENJOY keeps every clue shown here and leaves an average remainder of 1.5 (2 in its worst branch). Check any additional yellow-position clues in the full Solver.

No obvious one-slot trap. The possible answers do not form a three-word-or-larger family that differs in only one position.
