NT closes a five letter word with two consonants that run together in speech, 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 NT leave the opening three unsolved.
The third position splits this field almost evenly between four vowels. E gives you Agent, Event and Spent, I gives you Flint, Glint, Point and Print, while A and U lead to Chant, Grant, Blunt and Grunt.
There are 87 five letter words ending in NT. Point, Front, Meant, Plant and Count are the strongest Wordle guesses because none of them repeat a letter. E and I each open 21 of these words in the middle position, more than any other letter.
