Wordle is a global word game phenomenon that inspired other game creators, and many Wordle spin-offs are now catching on. Experienced players know that a letter that is the word but not in the right place receives a yellow square. A green square is your reward for a letter both in the word and in the correct location.
Since you only have a limited number of guesses, the first word you input is critical for the best results. You will want to develop a personal five-letter word list with answers that contain the most common letters: stare, crane, least, slant.
A well-played initial guess should net you a few yellow squares or even a green square. Once you have some information about the secret answer, our word tool can be a big help. When you input the letter you know, you will receive a list of five-letter possibilities.
Steps to Find Words with Your Letters
1. Length
Your first step will be to set the Length filter to five letters, the standard Wordle length. If you forget this step, you will have to scroll through a long list of words you cannot use. Our word tool can look for words up to 15 letters in length for Scrabble players.
2. Contains vs Include Filters
The second step will refine your possibilities. If you have some letters in green squares, you can use the Contains filter. You input underscores for letters that are still hidden and submit your known letters in their proper positions. For example, if you know the second letter is A and the last is M, your input would be _A__M.
The Include filter is for yellow-square letters. These letters belong in the word but you do not yet know their positions. You simply enter these letters into the filter field in the tool. A combination of the Include and Contains filters will quickly narrow down the possibilities.
3. Dictionary
You do not want to waste any guesses, so it is important to know that our word tool dictionary is broader than the official Wordle dictionary. You may receive some answers from our list that you can eliminate as Wordle guesses. For example, the NYT Wordle dictionary does not contain plural nouns or past tense verb forms. Using the tool on this page, you can find answers for any Wordle spin-off. Still, if you're playing NYT Wordle, we highly recommend you our Wordle Solver.
Our word list also factors word scores for games like Scrabble and Words with Friends. This arrangement may mean that you find unusual words that include high-scoring letters like Z and X at the top of your list. The Wordle dictionary uses more common words, so you may want to scroll down before you start guessing.
5 Letter Words with These Letters: ER, IS, ST
ER, IS and ST are some of the most common letter combinations on the Wordle dictionary list. That fact makes words that include these letters a great place to start your guesses.
Words with ER
ER frequently serves as a suffix that turns a verb into a noun. BOXER, FLYER, JOKER and MAKER all fall into this scheme. A few words start with the combination: ERECT, ERUPT, ERASE.
Words with IS
Be careful with guesses that end in IS because they may be plurals that are not part of the Wordle dictionary. Some words that end with IS have a Greek or Latin origin, such as BASIS and LAPIS. Some IS words also contain other helpful letters for your first guess: WRIST, HEIST, PRISM.
Words with ST
ST is a letter combination found at the start and end of many 5-letter words. STRIP, STRUM and STORM all feature it at the beginning. WORST, FIRST and TRUST end with the combination.
5 Letter Words Using These Letters: E and R, A and E, A and R

Words with A and E
EA is a common vowel combination in words like REACH, TEACH and CREAM. A silent E lengthens the A in QUAKE, GLAZE and PHASE.Words with A and R
