There are many other online word games now, but I still play the New York Times Wordle game every day. These days it’s not just an old friend, it’s also a nice warm-up for Connections, Strands and the rest.

We’ve also ranked all the letters in the alphabet by popularity, in case you want to use this list to choose your best starting words.

Everyday Wordle Tips

I’ve written a lot about Wordle – from describing the 1000th word to my list of the best beginner words to a helpful two-step strategy and news about controversial word changes. I’ve even summarized what I’ve learned for an entire year playing the popular online word puzzle. As you consider your need for the actual answer, you can try tips from one of these stories.

Do you still need a starting word? One person told me she simply looked around and chose a five-letter object she spotted as her starting word – such as COUCH or CHAIR. I tend to stick to the beginning words that contain the most commonly used letters in English words. I like TRAIN as a starter, although I have a friend who uses TRAIL. I’ve read people use the financial term ROATE, but I like to use words I actually know.

What is Wordle?

If you’ve read this far, you know how to play. You have six chances to guess a five-letter word, and the game gives you feedback on whether or not the letters you guessed are in the puzzle and whether they are in the same place you guessed them have. The New York Times purchased the game from creator Josh Wardle in 2022 for seven figures. Wardle famously developed the game for his partner and had her narrow down the 12,000 five-letter words in the English language to just 2,500, creating the database of answers. It was also handy that he had a name that harmonized with “Word.”

A Times spokesperson told me that the first-ever Wordle is scheduled to appear on June 19, 2021, and that the newspaper’s 1,000th anniversary is on March 15. Word of the game celebrated. Spoiler: This 1,000th Word was ERUPT. As in, “Dad will break out when the Wordle is so hard he loses his streak.”
