A green F at the front narrows a puzzle to a 5 letter word start F, and what follows the F determines the rest.
If that letter is L or R, it spells a blend with the F, as in FLOCK and FRONT.
From there, FRONT is a guess that tests the R blend and an N together in the same row.

FAQs
What are 5 letter words starting with F?
There are 823 of them. The everyday ones include FIRST, FOUND, FINAL, FRONT and FIELD.
How many 5 letter words start with F?
823 in total, and 135 of them are on the Wordle answer list.
What are the best 5 letter words starting with F for Wordle?
FALSE, FARES and FEARS narrow this list fastest. FALSE leaves at most 92 words in the worst case.
What 5 letter words start with F and end with S?
215 of them, including FOCUS, FETUS, FLOSS, FICUS and FEELS.
Can a Wordle answer start with F?
Yes. FIRST, FOUND and FINAL all sit on the Wordle answer list, so the pattern is worth playing for rather than ruling out.
Do any of these use the same letter twice?
Yes. FUNNY and FLOOR are two of them. Crossing off a letter after one grey square is the quickest way to miss an answer like these.
Is FAULD really a word?
Yes. A piece of armor plate below the breastplate. It is not on the Wordle answer list, so keep it for Scrabble.
Which one has the best chance of just being the answer?
FIRST. It is the most ordinary word here that the answer list carries, so it is the guess to make when you want to win the round rather than learn from it.
Are all of these accepted as guesses?
Yes. Every word on this list is a legal guess, including the ones that look wrong. FYTTE and FYRDS are among them. Only a smaller set sits on the answer list, and those are the ones marked in green.
Which of these would most players overlook?
FEIGN, FETID and FICUS. All three are on the answer list, and none is a word you would reach for early, so they are worth remembering once the obvious guesses run out.
