How to play this shortlist
This pattern has 5 words in the Wordle guess list; 4 are possible answers. The calculator compared 14,786 Wordle guesses against those 4 answers. The possible-answer label is a guide, not a promise about what Wordle's editors will choose.
Previously used by Wordle: PRICE (February 19, 2024); PRIDE (July 19, 2021); PRIME (November 22, 2022); PRIZE (August 31, 2022).
COZED does not fit this page's clues. PRICE keeps every clue shown here and leaves an average remainder of 2.5 (3 in its worst branch). Check any additional yellow-position clues in the full Solver.
Trap warning:
PRI_E
PRICE, PRIDE, PRIME, PRIZE differ only in the fourth position. Trying them one at a time can use several turns; COZED tests the family more efficiently.
