When to use it
Use the list for the job in front of you
Clue has a fixed length Use the list when the grid, prompt, or puzzle tells you there are exactly 6 letters.
Clue meaning starts to narrow the list Six-letter answers often reveal topic, word family, or suffix shape once you have one or two crossings.
Score still matters Base scores show raw letter value. Board bonuses, hooks, and game dictionaries still need a final check.
Next step
Move to a tighter tool when you know more
Exact length is a strong starting point. Once you know letters, positions, or feedback, a solver will cut the list down faster.
