Yes, it's in the list of guessable words - however it's not a valid answer word. You need to use the WORDLE word list in order to evaluate how good or bad your initial guess is, using another word list will provide distorted results.
- sbarre 5y agoYes that's what I meant, is it valid in Wordle specifically.
- noxvilleza 5y agoThat's what I was clarifying with 'Yes, it's in the list of guessable words - however it's not a valid answer word'. They have two lists of words: one is a list of possible answers, and another is a list of extra (valid) words which can be guessed (in addition to the words in the answer list). Sometimes it might be better to use a non-answer word as a guess: the best case gets worse (since you cannot win immediately) but the average case and worst case both get better.
- sbarre 5y agoAh I understand, thank you for clarifying!
