My Personal Favorites & Insights
cabin
Top PickA small wooden house. It's a classic 5-letter word that I always think of first.
My Pro Tip: It's a great Wordle guess because it tests 'B', 'I', and 'N'.
cable
Top PickA thick rope of wire. Essential for our modern world!
My Pro Tip: The 'L' and 'E' ending is very common in these 'CA' words.
camel
Top PickThe desert-dwelling animal. A bit of a tricky word for some puzzles.
My Pro Tip: It's one of the few 'CA' words that uses 'M'.
candy
Top PickSweet treats! Who doesn't love candy?
My Pro Tip: The 'Y' at the end makes it a unique pattern to look for.
canal
Top PickAn artificial waterway. A very 'vowel-heavy' word.
My Pro Tip: Using two 'A's can be a great way to eliminate vowel positions.
carve
Top PickTo cut into something. A strong verb for any word game.
My Pro Tip: The 'V' is a rare letter that can help you narrow down the answer quickly.
My "CA" Wordle Strategy
The Vowel Check
I've found that 'CA' words often follow up with 'N', 'R', or 'L'. If you have 'CA', try these consonants next to see if they fit.
Watch for Double Letters
Words like 'CADDY' or 'CALLS' can be tricky. I always check for double letters if my first few guesses don't quite land.
Common Endings
Many 'CA' words end in 'E' or 'S'. If you're stuck, try a word like 'CARES' or 'CABLE' to test those common endings.
Why I Put This Together
I've always found that words starting with CA are some of the most fun to play in games. They feel familiar, yet there are so many hidden gems that people often overlook.
Whether you're looking for a word to describe a cabin in the woods or just trying to find a high-scoring word like carve, I hope this guide makes your next game a little easier.
