Word play 3 letters

Welcome to 3 letter Wordle

3 letters Wordle is a word-guessing game. The object of the game is to guess a 3-letter word in 6 tries.

In the original version, you can play only 1 wordle a day. On our site, you will be able to play as many Wordles as you want!

How to play 3 letters Wordle?

Guess the word in 6 tries.

Each guess must be a valid 3 real letter word found on the dictionary. Hit the enter button to submit.

After each guess, the color of the tiles will change to show how close your guess was to the word.

Examples

How to start a 3 letter Wordle game?

Think of a word with 3 letters in it.

Type it and hit Enter. You can use your keyboard (desktop) or the letters on the screen(mobile).

The game will now paint the letters in your guess with different colors: green, yellow, and gray.

With this info, you have better information about what letters should or shouldn’t be in the word.

Now think of another word with the hints you received. Type it down and hit Enter.

Repeat this process until you guess the right word.

If you haven’t guessed the word in 6 tries, don’t worry. Although in the original version this means the game ended for you, on our site you will be able to repeat this Wordle at the end of the game.

When you find the right word, don’t forget to share it on Twitter/WhatsApp or via e-mail for others to enjoy it too.

Tips for playing Wordle

Start with a word that contains as many vowels as possible and no repeating letters, such as «RADIO.» More options are the words “CRANE» or “SLOTH,” which mathematicians have found to include many frequently used letters.

If you are stuck and can’t think of a word with the hints provided with your guesses. Just type another word that comes to your head. But if you can choose a word that has different letters from your other guesses, you will get as many new hints as possible.

If you are still stuck at the end of the game, you can share this Wordle on Twitter/WhatsApp/e-mail so your friends can help you.

The history of Wordle

Wordle was created by Josh Wardle, a programmer living in New York. He created the puzzle for himself and his partner.

After realizing that his relatives were hooked to the game, he made it public in October 2021.

Wordle gained massive popularity after Wardle added a feature where the game results can be shared on Twitter.

Wordle is similar to a 1955 word game called Jotto.

Is it possible to play today’s Wordle?

Yes! On top of playing unlimited number of Wordles over our website, you can also play today’s Wordle. Right below the headline of the page, you can click on the daily Wordle, and this will show you today’s Wordle. You can share and compare it with your friends.

Are there any statistics for my games?

Does Wordle have a hard mode?

Three Letter Words
That WIN Scrabble Games

as soon as it comes out!

If you were surprised by the number of two letter words, the number of three letter words allowed in Scrabble will blow you away. But first, let me explain why you should do your very best to master them…

Three Good Reasons to Master
The Three Letter Words

Here are some very good reasons to start learning the three letter words right now…

FIRST Many of the unusual three letter words contain at least one mid to high-scoring tile. These words can make very decent scores with easy ‘double-crossings’. In fact, even with one point tiles you can garner some surprisingly high scores by spotting sneaky ‘parallel plays’.

SECOND Three letter words can perform miracles when it comes to clearing out those nasty vowel-ridden or consonant-ridden racks. An opening rack like this one won’t raise a sweat if you know BRR (the sound you make when you’re cold)…

Likewise, you won’t be too bothered by awkward vowel combinations once you have words like EAU and ULU under your belt.

THIRD Most satisfying of all, knowing the unusual three letter words will enable you to play that bingo that you thought was unplayable. For sneaking in bingos it’s especially important to know the three letter words that are surprising ‘hooks’ of two letter words, like BY to ABY and IS to ISM.

All Three Letter Words Allowed in Scrabble

Here is a list of all the three letter words allowed in Scrabble. Along with each word, I’ve included the word’s part of speech (in italics) followed by its meaning, inflections, and variant spellings (if it has any, of course).

NOTE — In the list below, all the three letter words allowed in North American Scrabble are colored BLACK — that is, these are all the valid three letter words contained in the Official Scrabble Players Dictionary. The additional BLUE words are also allowed if you are using the international Scrabble dictionary — that is, Collins Scrabble Words, which is used outside of North America.
