How to Use This List

What Counts as a Wordle Word

Every entry on this list is exactly five letters long and uses only the letters a–z — the same shape as every accepted Wordle guess. The list is drawn from a public-domain English word list, filtered to five-letter words, deduplicated and sorted, so it covers the full range of words the game can accept.
