How to solve a six-letter Wordle

Six-letter games give you more letters per guess, but there are many more possible answers too. Your first two guesses really matter, so aim to test lots of common letters early.

  1. Type the 6-letter word you played and press Add guess.
  2. Tap each tile until its color matches your game: gray, then yellow, then green.
  3. Pick your next word from the ranked list or the suggestions, then repeat.

Tips for six-letter puzzles

  • Pick openers with three vowels and common consonants like R, S, T and N.
  • Think in chunks. Endings like -ER, -ED, -LY and -ION are common, and the ranked list brings them to the top once your clues point that way.
  • Expect repeats. Longer words often reuse a letter, as in LETTER, COFFEE or BANANA.
