5 words are capitalised in our source and absent from a standard English dictionary — usually a name, place or abbreviation. Crossword setters and Wordle do not use them, and most games will not accept them. How we work this out.

Puzzle tip: A confirmed final R narrows things quickly - scan the very common words first, since Wordle answers and crossword fills favour familiar vocabulary.
