5 Letter Words Ending with ING – Wordle Guides

I was obsessed with words that ended in ING when I was a kid. It was just one of those word things that you feel really smart upon figuring out. “Doing” this, “saying” that, I felt untouchable. As it turns out, that was a good subset of English to learn, because now we need some ING words for Wordle.

Luckily, we’ve got no shortage of ING words to sate your cravings. Here’s a list of five-letter words ending with ING.

5 Letter Words Ending with ING

ING is, admittedly, not the best set of letters to get saddled with late in a Wordle attempt, as there are quite a few possibilities that can take form. On the bright side, though, there aren’t as many ING words if you’re sticking exclusively to five letters. If we were playing with six letters, then things would be tough. Take a look at our list for some inspiration.

If you’re lucky enough to find the ING after already guessing the first or second letter, you’ve got a very high chance of getting the rest of the word pretty easily. If you’re looking to use one of these as your opening word, I’d suggest “bring” just to get an R on the board.
