Dictionary: the public-domain ENABLE word list (172,823 words), compiled by Alan Beale and M. Cooper. Source and licence. This is not the TWL or Collins tournament list.
🔒 Runs entirely in your browser — nothing you type is uploaded or stored on a server.
This page opens on the full list of everyday five-letter words — 3,258 of them, grouped by first letter — so if you just need to scan the list, it is already there. To narrow it down, fill in any of the boxes: what the word starts with, what it ends with, letters it must include in any order, and letters it must not include.
Also on Txtset: solve a Wordle from your guesses · match a pattern with gaps in it.
Everyday words only is on by default and keeps the list to words that turn up in ordinary English. Untick it to search the whole 172,823-word ENABLE dictionary, which adds the obscure words word games accept and people rarely say. The first filter you change downloads that dictionary once (570 KB); after that every search is instant and works offline.
Change Letters in the word to get 4-letter, 6-letter or any other length from 2 to 15 with the same filters. Must include counts repeats, so ee means at least two Es — handy for word games where a doubled letter is the whole clue.
If you are working through a Wordle, the Wordle Solver takes your guesses and their colours directly, which is easier than translating them into include and exclude boxes by hand. Nothing you type on either page leaves your browser.
How to use
- Scan the list, or pick a different word length.
- Fill in starts with, ends with, must include or must not include.
- Untick Everyday words only to search the full dictionary.
- Copy or download the result — the file includes every match, not just the ones on screen.
