Is BOOTH a Good Wordle Answer?
BOOTH's letters skew uncommon overall: "t" shows up in 33% of 5-letter words in our dictionary, while "b" appears in only 11%. That mix is fairly balanced, so its usefulness as an opener depends more on letter position than raw frequency — a good starting guess wants common letters in their common positions, and BOOTH leads with "b", which only sits first in 7% of 5-letter words — worth knowing if you're deciding whether to lead with it. When solving BOOTH, the key is to quickly identify the vowel pattern and use common letter combinations. The step-by-step walkthrough below illustrates exactly how an optimal solver would approach this puzzle, showing the reasoning behind each guess and how the feedback from each round informs the next choice.
