Every Wordle Answer Ever: Full Archive by Puzzle Number

How this archive works

Each row is one calendar day's Wordle: the puzzle number (the counter shown in the game itself and in your share result), the date it was live, and the five-letter answer. Wordle has run exactly once per day, worldwide, on the same puzzle number, since Josh Wardle's original version went viral in late 2021 and The New York Times acquired the game in early 2022 — the numbering and daily cadence carried over unchanged, so a specific puzzle number always refers to the same word on the same day no matter who looks it up or where.

Looking for today's answer rather than a past one? See our daily Wordle answer & hints postinstead — this archive is for confirming puzzles you've already missed. Just need the last few days? The yesterday's Wordle answer page lists the past week. Press Ctrl+F (Cmd+F on a Mac) to jump straight to a specific puzzle number, date, or word.

What are all the past Wordle answers in alphabetical order?

Wordle has used 1,925 different answers across 1,953 puzzles, and every one is listed below from A to Z. Each word shows the puzzle number it ran as, linked to that day, and the 28 words the New York Times reused show two numbers. S leads with 286 answers; Z has just 2.

This is the same data as the year-and-month archive further down, regrouped by first letter, so use it when you remember how a word starts but not when it appeared. Type the first few letters to filter the list, or jump to a letter; click a puzzle number to see that day in the archive.

Prefer to browse by date? The full archive by year and month is sorted by puzzle number, newest first. For one letter in depth, see 5 letter words starting with E.

How can I check whether a word has already been a Wordle answer?

Find the word under its first letter in the A–Z list above: if it is there, it has already been a daily answer, and the number beside it is the puzzle it ran as. If it is missing, it has not been a daily answer as of 2026-10-23, though Wordle may still accept it as a guess. To test a specific word, the Wordle word checker guide covers valid guesses versus past answers.

1. Type the word into the filter box above, or pick its first letter in the jump bar.
2. Scan that letter's group; the words are in alphabetical order.
3. Read the puzzle number or numbers next to it. Two numbers mean the answer was reused.
4. Click the puzzle number to jump to its row in the year-and-month archive and see the exact day.

This only tells you what has already run. It cannot say what comes next, and a word that has never been used is not guaranteed to appear soon.

Which first letters have the most past Wordle answers?

S has the most with 286 answers (14.9% of all distinct answers), followed by C (166) and B (144). At the other end, Z has 2 and Y has 7, and no answer has ever started with X. For the same idea applied to every position, see our Wordle letter frequency data and the best Wordle starting words.

Which past Wordle answers have been repeated?

28 answers have run twice. The first reuse was CIGAR (puzzle #0, reused as #1689 on February 2, 2026), and the most recent was STINK (#14 again as #1948). Those words show two puzzle numbers in the A–Z list. For the full pairs and the reasoning, see does Wordle repeat past answers.
