I don't know if one has ever been the answer, Jude, but it at least accepted it as a valid guess in its stripped-down form.

V, you lucked out choosing the correct starting letter today! Otherwise you'd have been playing whack-a-mole!

Jude, the word in your question has already been used/was a previous answer in WORDLE. As for what words can be used, I would think there is a dictionary or rules out there somewhere. I know they can use plural words (such as GOOSE/GEESE) but not 3-4 letter words made plural by adding an S or ES. At least, as the rules stand today.

Indeed. Beth had the last 4 letters on her second guess and didn't get it until "phew".
