Five letters is the busy one

The 5 letter words list gets the most use by a distance, thanks to Wordle. It splits further, by first letter and by last letter, so you can narrow straight down to the words that fit what you already know.

Shorter lists (three and four letters) suit crosswords and word games. Longer ones are handy for spelling practice. Each list is filtered to real dictionary words and ranked by frequency. The method is written up in full.
