Best First Guesses
Start with one of these. All three are among the 285 words below, and the number beside each is how many would still be left in the worst case.
- GREAT: takes 285 down to 62 at worst. It is on the answer list.
- ARGUE: down to 66. It is on the answer list.
- ORGAN: down to 75. It is on the answer list.
What These Words Have in Common
52 of them end in R, about one in five of the list. If you need a second letter to test, E (88), S (52) and O (50) appear here more than any others. Only 20 of the 285 are everyday words. The rest belong to crosswords more than to conversation, so lean on the letters above rather than on the tail of the list.

FAQs
Can a Wordle answer contain A, G and R?
Yes. GREAT, LARGE and RANGE 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. AGREE and GRASS are two of them. Crossing off a letter after one grey square is the quickest way to miss an answer like these.
Is ARGIL really a word?
Yes. A white clay (especially a white clay used by potters). It is not on the Wordle answer list, so keep it for Scrabble.
Which one has the best chance of just being the answer?
GREAT. 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. YORGA and YERGA 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?
AUGUR, GAYER and GAZER. 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.
