Wordle game help: 5-letter words with ‘N’ and ‘O’

Try checking the most common letters first.

Wordle has clear rules, guessing five-letter words in up to six tries using hints that appear after the first word is guessed similarly to the Mastermind game hints.

While the most common strategy is to start with words with a lot of vowels, such as “AUDIO” or “ADIEU”, other players prefer to use a more calculating option in an attempt to increase the win rate of their games.

The words “SLATE”, “CRANE”, and “CRATE” have something in common. Some of the easiest letters to appear in Wordle’s answers, like the vowels “A” and “E”. Starting with these words can be an important advantage in winning difficult games.
