Finding the first and last letters of Wordle puzzles are the two most important to successfully reaching a solution and with M being the start and R the end, the options are already cut down substantially.

There are 33 words that begin with M and end with R, so having found these words has already done wonders for narrowing down the options and bringing you a step closer to solving your Wordle puzzle.

A good way to go about finding the rest of your Wordle answer is to stick to words that you’re familiar with. It’s not often that Wordle will throw a curveball by using something that isn’t common.

Another way to improve your guessing success is to try out vowels as they are some of the most commonly used letters in these words.
