Which O _ _ _ T words fit Wordle?

Start with familiar options such as OUGHT, ORBIT, ONSET, and OVERT. Four of the 16 entries are common by the frequency measure; the rest include less familiar forms. Check your game's word list before relying on a rare match.

OBJET is the score play: it earns 14 points on the standard tile values, ahead of OUCHT at 10 and OUGHT at 9. Premium squares can change the board result, but the base totals give you a quick comparison before considering placement.

Choose the familiar word that fits your crossing letters before chasing OBJET’s higher total. Its score matters only when the board supports it, and the four common entries are a more familiar starting pool. For scale, the S-first, T-last pattern has 105 matches and O-first words ending in S have 74, making this O/T combination unusually narrow.
