Search tips
How to handle broad 8-letter searches
These tips keep the page useful for its own word length instead of treating every letter finder as the same search.
Anchor the word shape
Use exact positions whenever possible; include-only searches can stay too broad at this length.
Add exclusions after positions
Lock confirmed letters first, then remove impossible letters in small batches.
Copy narrowed lists
Once the list is short, copy results and compare them against the clue outside the browser.
Find words from any letters
Need a broader letter search?
