How to play this shortlist
This pattern has 9 words in the Wordle guess list; 6 are possible answers. The calculator compared 14,786 Wordle guesses against those 6 answers. The possible-answer label is a guide, not a promise about what Wordle's editors will choose.
Previously used by Wordle: ATONE (June 14, 2022); STOLE (January 18, 2024); STONE (September 21, 2023); STORE (November 28, 2021); STOVE (March 30, 2022).
KNARL does not fit this page's clues. ATOKE keeps every clue shown here and leaves an average remainder of 3.0 (4 in its worst branch). Check any additional yellow-position clues in the full Solver.
Trap warning:
STO_E
STOKE, STOLE, STONE, STORE, STOVE differ only in the fourth position. Trying them one at a time can use several turns; KNARL tests the family more efficiently.
