Did the letters E and T have any particular association before the movie E.T. came out? Because honestly, I’m drawing a blank. I guess that’s the power pop culture has over our language; I say “E.T.,” and you say “phone home.” Well, unfortunately, E.T. isn’t a five-letter word, so you’re going to need a little more if you’re solving Wordles.

5 Letter Words with ET in the Middle – Wordle Guides

Working from the middle of the word in Wordle can be frustrating because there are a lot more possibilities than if you already had the first or last letters nailed down. ET in particular, however, isn’t a bad combo to be saddled with, as the selection of potential words isn’t overwhelmingly huge.
