Having trouble with today’s Wordle? With only six tries to guess the right five-letter word, it can be difficult to come up with different words when you only have a few hints.

Today’s clues are an E as the second letter, and an S as the third letter.

Some of the words that fit those clues aren’t the most intuitive words to think of, with some words being archaic variations of modern words. Here is a list of words that have E as the second letter, and an S as the third letter:

  • aesir
  • besat
  • beset
  • besit
  • besom
  • besot
  • besti
  • besaw
  • besee
  • beses
  • bests

Try to start with words that have unique letters (ie. choose “cesta” over “reset”) to reveal more clues in the beginning. Some words that are more commonly used (“resin” and “zesty” are good examples) are more likely to be the solution than the archaic words (such as “mesal” or “aesir”).
