A doubled E after an R leads a Wordle player or crossword solver to 5 letter words with REE, and commonly only the outer squares remain unsolved.
Those squares go to consonants in GREEN and BREED, where a single letter comes before the R and another after the doubled E.
For a crossword answer, then, the crossing words determine the outer letters, the difference between GREEN and GREED.

Yes. THREE 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 REEFY really a word?
Yes. Full of submerged reefs or sandbanks or shoals. It is not on the Wordle answer list, so keep it for Scrabble.

THREE. 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. TREEY and SOREE are among them. Only a smaller set sits on the answer list, and those are the ones marked in green.

PREEN, REEDY and SCREE. 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.
