How to play this shortlist

This pattern has 34 words in the Wordle guess list; 11 are possible answers. The calculator compared 14,786 Wordle guesses against those 11 answers. The possible-answer label is a guide, not a promise about what Wordle's editors will choose.

Previously used by Wordle: MARCH (April 1, 2023); MARSH (October 5, 2022); MATCH (February 20, 2024); MIRTH (August 25, 2025); MONTH (March 9, 2022); MOOCH (February 13, 2026); MORPH (June 6, 2026); MOUTH (September 23, 2025); plus 3 more.

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

Hard Mode Use MOUTH instead.

ACORN does not fit this page's clues. MOUTH keeps every clue shown here and leaves an average remainder of 1.91 (3 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.
