7-LETTER WORD FINDER

Find the seven-letter word that fits.

Open a seven-letter finder with the positions you know, then narrow possible words using required and excluded letters.

7-letter word finder

Choose from 4 to 10 letters. Your puzzle is saved on this device.
Known letters
Wrong positions (optional)

For yellow letters, add the letter under each position it cannot occupy. These letters must appear somewhere else in the word.

Letter counts (optional)

Specify how many copies of a letter the word contains, including copies in Known letters.

Clear keeps the length. New puzzle resets to 7 letters.

Help & strategy

Possible word suggestions —

Add at least one clue to see matching words.

How are words ordered?

Common-list words come first. Within each group, words covering letters found in more of the remaining matches rank higher; fixed letters do not add to the score. This is a useful-guess guide, not the probability of an answer. Each game uses its own accepted word list.

Suggestions come from a general dictionary and do not retrieve or reveal a daily answer. About our dictionary.

Start with seven positions

The finder opens with seven known-letter boxes. Fill only the positions you are certain about, then use the other clues to narrow the possibilities.

Works beyond five-letter games

Wattle Puzzle Helpers adapts from four to ten letters, so you can use the same straightforward controls when a Wordle-style puzzle has a longer answer.

Keep the puzzle yours

Suggestions come from a general local dictionary. The finder does not fetch, store, or reveal a publisher’s answer.

Example: seven letters, two fixed positions

Choose seven letters, enter T in the first Known letters box and R in the seventh, then enter EA in Must include. TEACHER fits: it starts with T, ends with R and contains both E and A.

Leave uncertain positions empty. Must include does not set an order, so EA does not require those letters to be adjacent.

These are illustrative clues, not a daily puzzle answer. Each game decides which words it accepts.

Wordle solver5-letter word finderHow it works

Using the word helper

Choose the word length
Set the slider to the number of letters in the puzzle you are playing. It runs from 4 to 10 letters and starts at 5.
Known letters
Put a letter in the box where you know its exact position. The boxes and results update to your selected length, and the letter is added to Must include automatically.
Must include
Add letters that are somewhere in the word when you do not know their position. Repeat a letter when you know it appears twice.
Cannot include
Add letters you know are not in the word.
Optional position and count clues
Open Wrong positions to keep a yellow letter out of a particular box. Open Letter counts to choose exactly or at least a number of copies. Your clues are saved on this device. Clear these clues keeps the selected length; New puzzle clears all clues and resets to 7 letters.

Example: in a six-letter puzzle, for A in position 1, P in position 2, R somewhere in the word, and no S, L, or N: choose 6 letters, enter A and P in the first two boxes, R in Must include, and SLN in Cannot include.

Word-game strategy guide

Match the puzzle length first
Set the helper to the puzzle’s word length before entering clues. It supports words from 4 to 10 letters, with 7 selected by default.
Start with useful coverage
Choose a real word of the right length with common vowels and consonants. Favour different letters early when the puzzle allows it.
Read every tile precisely
Green fixes a letter in place. Yellow means it belongs elsewhere. Grey usually rules a letter out, but repeated letters need extra care.
Test the remaining unknowns
Keep confirmed letters, then use your next guess to test positions or letters you have not settled yet.
Choose among the finalists
When several words fit, try a word that checks the letters that separate them. When every clue points to one candidate, make that guess.

This helper works only from the clues you enter. It does not retrieve, know, or reveal a daily answer.

Repeated letters

Match the puzzle length
Choose the same word length as your puzzle before adding clues. The helper only shows words of that selected length.
Known positions
Put the letter in every box whose position you know. For example, enter E in positions 2 and 4 when both are fixed. The helper adds both copies to Must include.
Known count, unknown positions
If you know a letter appears twice but not where, type it twice in Must include, such as EE. The helper will show only words of the selected length with at least two Es.
Set an exact count
Open Letter counts to choose a letter, Exactly or At least, and the number of copies. Exactly one E rules out a second E. The count includes any copies already entered in Known letters.

Do not put a letter in Cannot include if it appears in Known letters or Must include, even when another copy is not part of the answer.

Why no results?

Check the word length
Make sure the slider matches the puzzle. The helper only searches words with the selected number of letters.
Look for conflicting clues
A letter cannot be in Known letters or Must include and also appear in Cannot include. Remove the conflicting clue and try again.
Relax one uncertain clue
When every clue looks right, remove the clue you are least sure about, search again, then add it back if needed.
Start fresh
Use Clear these clues to empty the form and enter only the feedback you have confirmed.

The helper searches a general dictionary, so it may not include every accepted word in every game.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

A little more guidance.

How do I find a 7-letter word with missing letters?

This page starts with 7 positions. Fill confirmed letters and leave unknown positions empty. Add required or excluded letters to narrow the matches. New puzzle restores the 7-letter preset.

How do repeated letters work in the word finder?

Use Letter counts to set a minimum or maximum number of copies. A known position fixes one copy in that position; it does not rule out another copy elsewhere. Wrong positions lets you exclude a letter from a particular position.

Does the Wordle helper know today’s answer?

No. It filters a dictionary using the clues you enter. The familiar five-letter group comes from a fixed historical list, not a live daily-answer feed. A suggested word is not a confirmed answer.

Why might my game reject a suggested word?

Each game chooses its own accepted-word list. These helpers use a general English dictionary that includes uncommon words, so a match is not a guarantee that your game accepts it.
