Looks like your 3/6 was 'shows'.
I've wondered if they do plurals. I don't think I've seen any.

Spoiler:
You are correct. Can't think of any, but why wouldn't there be?

-0-? Because it's too easy a way to create a "new" word?

Meh, today's word was a past tense. Sorta the same difference.

They must have used some rules to whittle 200K (?) English words down to 2K (?) Wordle words. Idk what they were.

Suprisingly, a search for 'Wordle word criteria ' didn't provide an answer.

Silly boy, 'word' has too few letters and 'criteria' has too many. ;)

"Wordle words picks rules" led me to:

... Does Wordle Use Plurals?

You can guess words that are plural to help you eliminate or discover correct letters, but don’t bank on many of the answers being plural. In fact, of all the Wordles in 2022 so far, none of the answers have been plural words, per a list compiled by Screen Rant, although two did end in “s” while not being plurals (rebus and truss). I wouldn’t rule plurals out of the question, but they don’t seem like they’ll be the answer very often. Elite Daily reached out to Wordle for comment on the use of plurals but did not hear back at the time of publication.

Does Wordle Use Past Tense Words?

This one’s tricky. While there’s no proof the word of the day will end in -ed, there’s no proof that it won’t, either. The list of every word of the day starting from Jan. 1, 2022 indicates there haven’t been any past tense words as of Jan. 12, but who knows what that could mean for the future. Elite Daily reached out to Wordle for comment on the possible use of past tense words but did not hear back at the time of publication....
As you say, 'shown' is a past tense word, but maybe there won't be any '-ed' words. -0-?
