Yellow tiles for O, E and L leave 5 letter words with E, L and O to be sorted by where the L belongs.
When the L comes last, the E is commonly fourth, directly before it, as MODEL and HOTEL spell it.
Hence a guess finishing on -EL is the quickest test, confirming or ruling out both letters in a single row.

Can a Wordle answer contain E, L and O?
Yes. WHOLE, CLOSE and ALONE 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. HELLO and LOOSE are two of them. Crossing off a letter after one grey square is the quickest way to miss an answer like these.
Is LEROT really a word?
Yes. Dormouse of southern Europe and northern Africa. It is not on the Wordle answer list, so keep it for Scrabble.
Which one has the best chance of just being the answer?
WHOLE. 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. ZOLLE and ZOEAL 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?
BOULE, DOWEL and ELOPE. 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.
