Wordle tips and tricks

A good solving routine uses every tile as evidence. These simple habits make your guesses more efficient without taking the satisfaction out of the puzzle.

01

Begin with a balanced word

Choose an opener that tests common vowels and consonants. Words such as SLATE, CRANE, or TRACE reveal more useful information than a guess with repeated letters.

02

Treat gray letters as evidence

Once a letter is ruled out, avoid using it again unless the board suggests a repeated-letter possibility. Every guess should test something new.

03

Move yellow letters around

A yellow tile confirms the letter but rejects its current position. Try it in a genuinely different slot instead of simply rearranging the same pattern.

04

Remember double letters

Wordle answers can repeat letters. If the obvious options seem exhausted, consider whether one confirmed letter may appear twice.

05

Use the whole keyboard

Before guessing, scan your unused letters and build a word that covers several plausible candidates. A strategic test word can be better than an immediate solution attempt.

06

Pause before guess six

List the remaining patterns mentally and compare each against every clue. The final guess should explain all green, yellow, and gray information on the board.
