AT closes a five letter word with a short vowel and a hard stop, and Wordle players confirm the pair once both tiles turn green. Those letters fix the last two positions, so the 5 letter words ending in AT leave the opening three unsolved.

E in the third position gives you Bleat, Cheat, Great, Pleat, Treat and Wheat, which is the largest single group here. R follows close behind, with Groat, Sprat, Scrat and Surat taking that slot instead.

There are 53 five letter words ending in AT. Great, Sweat, Cheat, Wheat and Float are the strongest Wordle guesses because none of them repeat a letter. Izzat scores 23 in Scrabble, the highest of the group.
