There are more than 40 possible Wordle solutions that use the letters O and U in the third and fourth positions. While this has narrowed down things substantially, there are still quite a few options so you’ll need to work to push things further.

A great tip for finding new letters in Wordle puzzles is to try vowels as they are often some of the most used letters in all words. You may also want to focus on a single position in the word like its first letter and try to seek out that first.
