How to Use This Archive

Use the search bar above to look up any past Wordle answer. You can search by the word itself, the puzzle number, or the date it appeared. This is useful for checking whether a word has already been used as an answer, settling debates with friends, or verifying your own records.

Since Wordle has started repeating answers, this archive is also helpful for seeing which words might come back. Words used early in Wordle’s history (2021-2022) are the most likely candidates for repeats.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often is this archive updated?
Every day. As soon as the new Wordle puzzle answer is confirmed, it’s added to our archive, typically before 3 AM ET.
Can I use past answers as guesses in Wordle?
Yes. Wordle accepts any valid five-letter English word as a guess, including words that have already been answers. The curated answer list only controls which word is chosen as the daily solution.
Has the answer list changed since the NYT acquisition?
Yes. The New York Times removed several words deemed offensive or too obscure after acquiring Wordle in early 2022, and has occasionally added new words. The archive reflects the actual answers that appeared each day.
How many Wordle answers are there in total?
The original curated list contained 2,309 words. With daily puzzles running since June 2021, over 1,900 unique answers have been used. The NYT has begun repeating some early answers as the list is exhausted.
