About 5 Letter Words
Why this exists
Every stuck-on-a-puzzle moment starts the same way: you know some letters, you've ruled out others, and you just need the site to do the sorting for you. That's the whole idea here — no accounts, no clutter, just a fast filter over a real word list.
How it works
Everything runs in your browser. The word list for whatever length you pick loads once, and every keystroke after that filters it locally — no server round-trip, no lag, and nothing you type ever leaves your device.
Playing competitively?
These lists are built for reference and practice, not tournament rulings. If you're playing a dictionary-restricted match, check the word against your game's official list (TWL or SOWPODS) — this site doesn't claim to match any one of them exactly.
Where the words come from
The word list itself is an open-source English word list (SCOWL). Definitions and parts of speech come from Princeton WordNet, pronunciations from the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary, and Scrabble scores from the standard letter-value table. Coverage isn't perfect — a handful of less common words are still missing a definition or pronunciation.
