5 Letter Words With A and T with Wordle answers like ABATE, ABBOT, ABORT

If Wordle colours both A and T yellow, 5 letter words with A and T become the field, and the A is steadier.

It comes second more than in any other square, in WATER and LATER for instance.

Move the A into that second square first, then let later guesses chase the T in the remaining squares.

What 5 letter words have A and T in any order?

1,952 of them, including ABOUT, AFTER, GREAT, STATE and START.

Can a Wordle answer contain A and T?

Yes. ABOUT, AFTER and GREAT 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. STATE and START are two of them. Crossing off a letter after one grey square is the quickest way to miss an answer like these.

Is ADUST really a word?

Yes. Burned brown by the sun; – Sir Walter Scott. It is not on the Wordle answer list, so keep it for Scrabble.

Which one has the best chance of just being the answer?

ABOUT. 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. ZATIS and ZABTI 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?

ANTIC, BASTE and BEGAT. 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.
