FAQs
What are 5 letter words with E and G?
There are 857 of them. The everyday ones include BEING, GREAT, GIVEN, LARGE and GUESS.
How many 5 letter words have E and G in them?
857 in total, and 129 of them are on the Wordle answer list.
Which 5 letter words with E and G are Wordle answers?
129 of them have been answers, among them GREEN, RANGE, STAGE, LEGAL and BEGAN.
What 5 letter words have E and G in any order?
857 of them, including BEING, GREAT, GIVEN, LARGE and GUESS.
Can a Wordle answer contain E and G?
Yes. BEING, GREAT and GIVEN 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. GUESS and GREEN are two of them. Crossing off a letter after one grey square is the quickest way to miss an answer like these.
Is BEFOG really a word?
Yes. Make less visible or unclear. It is not on the Wordle answer list, so keep it for Scrabble.
Which one has the best chance of just being the answer?
BEING. 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. ZIEGA and YOKEG 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?
BEGAT, BEGET and CAGEY. 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.
