FAQs
What are 5 letter words with LA?
There are 750 of them. The everyday ones include PLACE, LATER, BLACK, LARGE and CLAIM.
How many 5 letter words have LA in them?
750 in total, and 83 of them are on the Wordle answer list.
Which 5 letter words with LA are Wordle answers?
83 of them have been answers, among them PLANT, LABOR, PLANE, LAUGH and BLAME.
What 5 letter words have LA in the middle?
419 of them, including PLACE, BLACK, CLAIM, PLANT and PLANE.
Is this the same as 5 Letter Words With A and L?
No. Every word here keeps LA together, in that order. ALARM does, ADULT does not. 5 Letter Words With A and L takes those letters anywhere in the word.
Can a Wordle answer have LA side by side?
Yes. PLACE, LATER and BLACK 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. CLASS and GLASS are two of them. Crossing off a letter after one grey square is the quickest way to miss an answer like these.
Is BLATE really a word?
Yes. Cry plaintively. It is not on the Wordle answer list, so keep it for Scrabble.
Which one has the best chance of just being the answer?
PLACE. 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. ZILAS and YCLAD 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?
BLARE, ECLAT and ELATE. 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.
