About 5 letter words ending in D
A large share of 5 letter words ending in D are past-tense verbs ending in -ED, like asked, moved, tried and named. Wordle answers rarely use simple past tenses, so if you're solving Wordle, look past the -ED words first. The others end in -ND (found, round, stand), -LD (child, world) or -RD (board, heard, third). Those three endings are the best things to test once D is green in the last spot.
D ranks fourth out of 26 as a last letter for 5 letter words.
Common endings with D
Almost half of common D-ending words end in -ED, and most of those are past-tense verbs, like asked and named. The rest are more useful for Wordle. -ND words include blind, bound, brand, grand and trend. -RD words include award, guard and weird. -ID words include avoid, solid and squid. -LD words include build and child. If D is green last and E is already ruled out, you can skip the whole -ED group and focus on N, R, L and I in the fourth spot. For D at the start, see 5 letter words starting with D.
