Every Repeated Wordle Word So Far: The Complete List (Updated Daily)
Does Wordle repeat words? Yes. As of February 2, 2026, The New York Times officially began reintroducing previously used answers into the daily rotation. While new words will still debut, past solutions can now reappear at any time.
I maintain a daily-updated log of every Wordle answer in chronological order. Because of this new rule change, I’ve created this dedicated archive of every repeated Wordle word so far.
Below, you’ll find each recurring word listed with its original appearance date and its most recent repeat date.

The first-ever Wordle repeat occurred on February 2, 2026 (Groundhog Day), with the very first Wordle word, CIGAR.
Wondered why words were reappearing. They're trying to extend the life of the puzzle that was designed to have a limited run.
ReplyDeleteSadly, this is the case.
DeleteI’m glad they are doing this. It can keep the game going forever. It’s not really going to ruin the game and it will make it more challenging for the folks who use the previously used word lists to eliminate guesses. Not only that but if they never repeated words, eventually the pool of available answers will be diminishingly small
DeleteHello there! That’s true. But at the same time there was a certain charm knowing that the game will not last forever.
DeleteSays who? What was charming about that?
DeleteHello there! Says I. And actually, plenty of other folks that were put off by NYT's decision to repeat words.
DeleteWhat was charming about that, at least to me, was that with each word, we were nearing an end. In that way, each word meant something. There were words that were streak-breakers, but at least we knew that we wouldn’t encounter them again. There was a sense of anticipation for what the last word would be. Wordle had the potential to move hundreds of thousands of people. Imagine waking up one day to the final Wordle word. It would be quite something for many people to get that final “Congratulations!” screen after over 6 years of having Wordle as a daily ritual.
It's totally OK to not feel the same way, but there is not reason to dismiss the feelings of others.
You can add Sandy to the list 27 October 2024 and 4 April 2026
ReplyDeleteDone!
DeleteUp until Sandy, all repeats were within the Wordle's first year. Was hoping they only added year one back into pool, but guess it's the whole lot - darn, all my nemesis words ending in ER are back in play.
ReplyDeleteExactly my thoughts too!
DeleteCan’t wait for PARER to hose everyone again
DeleteHahah that's bound to happen. And this time it will be even worse for all of us who check previous Wordle lists.
DeleteEager was a repeat recently
ReplyDeleteHello! EAGER has only appeared once so far, on May 15 2025.
DeleteI hope they never reuse PARER. It was the worst Wordle Iword in the history of Wordle
ReplyDeleteAnd that’s exactly why they will reuse it! 🥲
DeleteYou can add BASIN to the list of repeats:
ReplyDelete#1078 on 06/01/2024
#1737 on 03/22/2026
Hello there! BASIN has only been used once #1078. #1737 was BASIL. I keep a list with all past Wordles here: https://www.stadafa.com/2021/09/every-worlde-word-so-far-updated-daily.html
DeleteMy apologies. I keep a list of all wordle answers, as well. I corrected my list for #1737 to BASIL.
DeleteNo worries! Have a great weekend!
DeleteNOOOO never stop occasionally it is the highlight of my day
ReplyDeleteHello there! How do you mean?
