List insights

Numbers below are counted from this exact list — use them to pick a word that also fits your other clues.

• Strong openers here: EXTRAS, TAXERS, COAXER, OXTERS, EXALTS, LAXEST — recognisable words that cover a lot of common letters. More in best starting words.
• 264 of 446 use no repeated letters (e.g. ADIEUX, ADMIXT, ALEXIC, ALEXIN, ALKOXY, ANOXIC) — these test more of the alphabet per guess. See words with no repeated letters.
• Most vowels (4): ADIEUX, ALEXIA, ANOXIA, ATAXIA, EXODOI, EXUVIA. Vowel-heavy guesses lock down the trickiest slots early — see words with many vowels.
• 18 contain a double letter (e.g. AFFLUX, ANNEXE, AXILLA, AXSEED, BOLLIX, BOLLOX) — worth remembering when a letter feels “used up.” See words with double letters.
