5 Letter Words Starting with CRE – Wordle Guides

While I normally consider words beginning with a C and an R to be fun to say, the introduction of an E kind of muddles the equation. CRE words, for some reason, all seem to revolve around either weird, unsettling things, or desserts. I like desserts, but I could do without the weird things.

If you’re finding yourself unsettled by the hunt for CRE words in your daily Wordle, worry no more. We’ll endure the weirdness together. Here’s a list of 5-letter words starting with CRE for Wordle.

Since CRE makes up the majority of a 5-letter word, if you can nail it down, then it shouldn’t be too difficult to suss out the remainder. Many words in this category seem to make use of the same few consonants, so guessing just one of them should put you on a pretty straight track to success.

Eugh, so many weird words. And… references to desserts. Man, CRE is such a weird setup. Anyway, if you’re looking to use one of these as your opening word, I’d personally pick “crems.” M and S are pretty common consonants, and you’re already getting R and E from the setup, so it’s a nice little potluck of common letter choices. “Crena” is a decent pick as well, just to get an A and an N on the board.
