Wordle, the five-letter word guessing game that has taken the world by storm, challenges players each day to figure out the winning word. Since its release in 2021, Wordle has become immensely popular on social media and has even inspired variations of the game including Quordle, Octordle, and, for math lovers, Nerdle.

An earlier version of this List removed today's word at the very beginning of each day. Due to reader requests, answers will now be removed towards the end of the day.

Wordle started on June 19, 2021, with a listed 2,315 possible solutions. When The New York Times purchased Wordle in 2022, six words were removed from this list: agora, pupal, lynch, fibre, slave, and wench. When players connect to the Wordle site, their browser downloads a script that stores all past answers and future, unused Wordle words.

All Possible Remaining Wordle Answers

The following list of 1,739 words is all possible words Wordle has left as of January 9, 2023. Since the script for Wordle is already written through October 2027, it is possible to get the exact date for each answer. In honor of good sportsmanship and fair play, this list of Wordle words not used yet is in alphabetical order instead. We wouldn't want to make it too easy for you, after all.
