Using TR__ Words in Word Puzzles

There are 113 valid five-letter words starting with TR in our dictionary. 32 of these are common, everyday words that regularly appear in curated daily puzzles like Word Equation. The remaining 81 are valid but less familiar — useful to know when you're stuck, but unlikely to appear in a standard daily puzzle.

If you've confirmed TR at the start of a puzzle, your next move is to nail down the third letter. Try a guess that places different vowels and common consonants in position 3 to eliminate large groups at once. In Word Equation, every number you receive tells you exactly how many letters are in the right spot — use that to rule out entire clusters of TR__ words in a single guess.
