It would be hard to narrow down the list just by looking at it, and you might need some help.
- Do not exclude words with duplicate letters. Words like “Fifty” might seem like a waste of letters, but several words on this list have duplicate letters. Don’t be afraid to try them out if you’re sure these letters might work.
- Cross out the words whose letters you know are wrong. For example, if you try “Silky” and find that all the letters except “I” and “Y” are incorrect, then you know that other words with those letters will not be the correct answer.
It may take time and some testing, but you can easily find today’s Wordle with some good detective work.
