There is a decent number of words on this list, and you might need some tactics to start narrowing down the possibilities.
- Test words with unique letters first. While that doesn’t mean words like “Sieve” can’t be today’s answer, you won’t get many clues if you are wrong. Words such as “Above” or “Shove” provide more hints that get you closer to the correct answer. If you have narrowed the field enough and unique letters aren’t cutting it, that’s the time to use words like “Sieve” or “Verve.”
- Cross out words whose letters you know are incorrect. For example, if you test “Heave” and discover that the first three letters aren’t correct, you can cross out words with those letters. Words such as “Halve” or “Helve” can’t possibly be correct if the word doesn’t have a single “H” anywhere. This cuts out several words from the list and is worth testing out.
- If you have previous tries with incorrect letters, use the above tip before using your remaining tries. Just because you didn’t get the correct letters doesn’t mean those words can’t help you narrow down the possibilities.
You might need a lot of detective work, but eventually, you will find today’s Wordle and maintain your daily streak.
