While there are nearly a dozen daily games that The New York Times offers, the one that has many puzzle solvers in a chokehold is Wordle. But what is Wordle exactly? Well, for those not in the know, it's a puzzle that includes one five letter word that needs to be solved within six tries. Sound simple? It may be—if you actually know the unused Wordle words that are left to help narrow down your answers each day.
Originally launching in 2021, the game was acquired by The New York Times just one short year later and with it, six words were removed from the initial 2,315 possible solutions. Those sacred words? Probably some that you would never guess: agora, pupal, lynch, fibre, slave and wench. (Yes, wench.) And as a result, the words not used in Wordle dropped to 2,309.

How Are Unused Wordle Words Kept Track Of?
With all of the possible solutions available, it's difficult for puzzle goers to know what has already been used. But, if you were wondering just how the folks who generate the game keeps track of it, it's actually easier than you think. When players log on to the Wordle site, their browser automatically downloads a script that includes all past and future answers as well as unused Wordle words.

Originally, Wordle puzzle answers were not reused, but as of early 2026, The New York Times made the decision to recycle some of the older answers so as to not exhaust the game.
All of the Possible Remaining Wordle Answers
Since it's release and subsequent move to The New York Times, Wordle has wildly grown in popularity on social media (and has even spawned a few fan-inspired variations of the game including Nerdle, Quordle and Octordle). Puzzle lovers are constantly racking their brains on the daily to figure out the Wordle answer and while some days may be easy, for those days that have you stumped, we've got you covered.
The below list of words is what's left as possible World answers as of June 15, 2026. And while we could give you the expected date that each word will be used (the Wordle script is already written through October 2027), that wouldn't be as fun as solving them on your own. We did, however, list all of the unused Wordle words in alphabetical order instead to help you along your journey.
