2,211 words carry O and S somewhere. AROSE, ARSON, ASCOT are the strongest of them, and 151 sit on the answer list.
The green marks pick out the 151 words here that could still be the solution.
Best First Guesses
With 2,211 words to get through, the first guess decides most of the round. Each one below is on this list, so it could be the answer outright, and the number beside it is how many words would still be left in the worst case.
- ROLES: takes 2,211 down to 384 at worst.
- PORTS: down to 408.
- NOTES: down to 428.
What These Words Have in Common
The last square lands on S more than any other letter: 1,343 words, close to half of the set. The company these words keep: E (531), R (486) and T (465). Only 142 of the 2,211 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 O and S?
Yes. THOSE, HOUSE and STORY have all been answers, so the pattern is worth playing for rather than ruling out.
Do any of these use the same letter twice?
Yes. LOOKS and SHOWS are two of them. Crossing off a letter after one grey square is the quickest way to miss an answer like these.
Is BESOT really a word?
Yes. Make dull or stupid or muddle with drunkenness or infatuation. It has never been the puzzle, so keep it for Scrabble.
Which one has the best chance of just being the answer?
THOSE. It is the most ordinary word on this list that has already been the puzzle, 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. ZOSMA and ZORSE are among them. Only a smaller set has ever been the answer, and those are the ones marked in green.
Which of these would most players overlook?
COPSE, DROSS and FOIST. 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.
