With a Y confirmed green as the final letter and a yellow I still loose, 5 letter words with I and Y narrow the search quickly.
The I comes second in most, and a Y finishes the word, as in DIRTY and SILLY.
Next, try the I second; a familiar word such as DIRTY tests that spot without wasting a letter.
