What is this tool?
This is a fast, simple word finder designed to help you discover 5-letter words for word games like Wordle, Scrabble, Words With Friends, and crossword puzzles.
Our database includes over 17,000 valid 5-letter English words, including the complete official Wordle word list.
How to use the filters
Green Boxes - Letters in Exact Positions
Enter letters you know are in specific positions. In Wordle, these are your green tiles. For example, if you know the word starts with "S", enter "S" in the first green box.
Yellow Boxes - Letters That Must Appear
Enter letters that must be in the word but you don't know their exact position. In Wordle, these are your yellow tiles. The word finder will only show words containing all these letters.
Gray Buttons - Letters to Exclude
Click any letter to exclude it from results. In Wordle, these are your gray tiles - letters that aren't in the word at all. Click again to re-enable a letter.
Understanding the results
Bold words are from the official Wordle answer list - they're more likely to be the answer in Wordle specifically.
Regular words are valid English words and can be used as guesses in Wordle, but they're less likely to be the actual answer.
Tips for Wordle
- Start with a word that has common vowels (E, A, O) and consonants (R, S, T, L, N)
- Good starter words include: CRANE, SLATE, TRACE, AUDIO, ARISE
- Use the filters to narrow down possibilities based on your results
- Pay attention to letter frequency - E is the most common letter in 5-letter words
- Bold words in the results are more likely to be Wordle answers
