5-letter words with T and V
80 words are exactly five letters long and contain both T and V, in any order and any position. That is 0.5% of every five-letter word.
What you know
Two letters confirmed, no positions confirmed. This is the classic two-yellow-tile board.
For example: advts, evict, stove, vatos, vertu, vitro.

80 of 80 shownPlaying a two-letter clue
Only 80 five-letter words carry both letters, ranking this pair 224 of 323. A pair this rare is close to a solved puzzle, so read the whole list before guessing. Only 1% put the two letters next to each other, so spread them apart when you build a guess rather than clustering them.
T and V are both consonants. That means the word still needs at least one vowel you have not confirmed, so your next guess is often better spent on A, E, O or I than on another consonant.
The habit worth building is to stop hunting for the answer and start hunting for the guess that splits this list fastest. With 80 candidates in play, a word that tests three untried letters is nearly always better than a word that merely fits everything you already know. Once one of T or V turns green, drop this page and use the position lists instead: T in the middle, ending in V, or starting with T.
Quick answers
How many 5-letter words have both T and V?
80 of them, out of 14,858 five-letter words, which is about 0.5% of the length. Only 80 five-letter words carry both letters, ranking this pair 224 of 323. A pair this rare is close to a solved puzzle, so read the whole list before guessing.
Does the order of T and V matter here?
No. This list takes any five-letter word that contains both letters, wherever they fall, so T may come before or after V. Only 1% put the two letters next to each other, so spread them apart when you build a guess rather than clustering them.
How do I use this list in Wordle?
Two yellow tiles is exactly this situation: both letters belong, neither is where you put it. Work down the list and pick a word that moves both letters to new slots while also testing letters you have not tried. Repeating a letter in a slot you already know is wrong wastes a whole guess.
Which letters do these words usually start with?
The most common opening letters here are V (48), E (5), T (5). T and V are both consonants. That means the word still needs at least one vowel you have not confirmed, so your next guess is often better spent on A, E, O or I than on another consonant.
Can I narrow this further?
Yes. If you know where one of the letters sits, switch to 5-letter words starting with T, 5-letter words ending in V, or 5-letter words with T in the middle. A fixed position cuts far harder than a second loose letter.
Swap the second letter
Keep T, pair it with something else.
Swap the first letter
Keep V, pair it with something else.
