A question for those fluent in French, bilingual, or maybe native Francophones.

I wordle a couple of times a week, usually in French (Le Mot) as well as English.
I enjoy the tussle and, although tempted to believe it's a 'game of skill', there's obviously a lot of luck involved, quite a bit of strategy, and a large vocabulary must be helpful. I was delighted when I actually got the English version in one a few weeks ago - clearly more luck than anything else.

I have a reasonable working knowledge of French, but am a bit surprised to find that my long term record is better in Le Mot than in Wordle, when I am clearly far more proficient in my native English. Does anyone know why this might be? Are there just fewer words in French (or, more precisely, in the Le Mot dictionary), or is French just less varied in its spelling, with some letters used more frequently? Predicting the answer, or a series of letters, seems just a bit easier, whereas in English there seem to be more possible variants.

Does anyone else find this, or know what is going on?

I have the same experience with the Italian version but I’ve no idea why that should be.

I even got it in one a few weeks ago when my preferred starter word (ironically, AIUTO) was indeed the target.
