Wordle word check

Check a word before using your next guess

The Wordle Guess Checker helps you review a five letter word before entering it in the game. Check whether the word is recognized and whether its letters make sense for your current clues.

A valid guess is not always a possible daily answer. When several solutions remain, compare how many new letters a guess tests and whether it follows every green and yellow clue required by Hard Mode.

Frequently asked questions

What makes a Wordle guess valid?

A valid guess is a five letter word recognized by the game’s accepted guess list. That list is larger than the daily answer list.

Can a valid guess be an unlikely answer?

Yes. Some accepted guesses are mainly useful for testing letters and are not expected to appear as daily solutions.

What is a good probe word?

A good probe word tests several letters that separate the remaining answers while avoiding letters you have already ruled out.
