How to play this shortlist
This pattern has 10 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: BUILT (December 21, 2023); QUIET (July 5, 2021); QUILT (December 21, 2025).
ABENG does not fit this page's clues. BUILT 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.
Tight family:
_UILT
BUILT, GUILT, QUILT differ only in the first position. Trying them one at a time can use several turns; ABENG tests the family more efficiently.
