About this tool

Search every five-letter word in the English language — all 8,636 of them. Combine filters: words that start with certain letters, end with others, contain a sequence, or match a position pattern like ?A?E?. It's the ultimate companion for Wordle, five-letter crossword slots, and word games.

The word list is based on the public-domain ENABLE dictionary, the same word list used by many tournament word games, so every result is a legitimate, playable word.

Frequently asked questions

How many 5-letter words are there?

Our dictionary contains 8,636 five-letter words. Wordle itself uses a smaller curated answer list (about 2,300 words), but accepts a much larger set of valid guesses.

Can I search by letter position?

Yes — use the pattern field with ? for unknown letters. For example, ?A?E? finds all five-letter words with A in the second position and E in the fourth.

What are the most common 5-letter words?

Frequently used five-letter words include ABOUT, WHICH, THEIR, WOULD, and THERE. In word games, high-value five-letter words like JAZZY and FUZZY score far more points.
