Begin by proposing a five-letter word. The letters will change color: green signifies an accurate letter in its correct location, yellow indicates the right letter positioned incorrectly, while gray means the letter does not appear in today’s secret word. For in-depth advice, check our comprehensive Wordle playing guide, along with an advanced strategy resource here.

Ready for some hints? Let’s dive in!

For this context, common letters are defined per the classic typesetting mnemonic, ETAOIN SHRDLU. (It’s handy to memorize and pronounce it as “Edwin Shirdloo,” a fictitious acquaintance.)

In today’s puzzle, four letters are common, while the fifth is less frequent.

It is often revered.

No letters are duplicated in today’s word.

Today’s word features two vowels, alongside one letter that functions as a vowel sporadically.

Are you ready for it? The word is DEITY.

Yesterday’s Wordle posed little challenge. The hint given was “akin to a bird or an anxious parent” and the solution contained four common letters alongside one unusual letter.

The answer was HOVER.

The goal of Wordle is to unearth the day’s hidden word. Upon starting the game, players are presented with a blank grid. It’s your responsibility to initiate play by entering any five-letter word.

Revealed colors provide helpful hints regarding the mystery word: Green denotes that a letter is both correctly identified and properly positioned. For instance, if you guess PARTY and the solution is PURSE, both P and R would be highlighted green.

• Yellow signifies that a letter exists within the word but is misplaced. For instance, guessing PARTY incorrectly with the actual word being ROAST will result in R, A, and T turning yellow.

• Gray indicates that the letter is absent in the solution altogether. Thus, if PARTY returns all grays, the solution is definitively not PURSE or ROAST.

With this understanding, make successive guesses to pinpoint the correct word before the six attempts are exhausted.

What should your first guess be? Effective starters usually include frequently used letters, boosting your chance of acquiring yellow and green indicators to refine future guesses. While there’s no definitive “best” word, the New York Times’s Wordle analysis bot recommends starting with options such as:

• CRANE

• TRACE

• SLANT

• CRATE

• CARTE

Alternatively, an analysis from MIT revealed that beginning with words like:

• SALET

• REAST

• TRACE

• CRATE

• SLATE

fosters the highest likelihood of minimizing options in the first round. Other viable suggestions include ARISE or ROUND. Words such as ADIEU and AUDIO yield more vowels, although emphasizing consonants with a starter like RENTS or CLAMP might prove beneficial. Select your approach and monitor the outcomes.

For seasoned players aiming to enhance their gameplay, consider exploring several strategy guides. One source discusses leveraging consonants effectively, while another highlights the importance of using prevalent letters. Additionally, this advanced guide presents a comprehensive method for hunting clues while maximizing winning probabilities.

A key differentiator between those who succeed and those who don’t is that winners actively utilize guesses to gather intelligence regarding the letters in the word. For example, if the word is verified to end in -OUND, it’s unwise to spend guesses confirming MOUND, ROUND, SOUND, and HOUND; explore alternative combinations and gain insight with guesses like MARSH. If H registers yellow, you’re closer to the answer.

It’s important to note that the initial version of Wordle operated with a pool of about 2,300 solution words. However, since its acquisition by NYT, the game now boasts an editor responsible for curating solutions. Occasionally, these choices might be trickier or topical, mirroring current events (for instance, the word FEAST during Thanksgiving). So, be aware of possible thematic trends.

If five-letter guessing games captivate your interest, explore the finest Wordle alternatives, arranged by difficulty:

• Wheeldle, allowing continuous puzzle engagement

• Dordle and Quordle, which require players to tackle two (Dordle) or four (Quordle) puzzles concurrently, using the same guesses. For an even bigger challenge, try Octordle, with eight puzzles, or Sedecordle, featuring 16 puzzles.

• Waffle, which presents a grid of scrambled five-letter words for players to rearrange until they succeed.

• Absurdle, where the solution adjusts with each guess but remains aligned with prior feedback. The objective is to methodically limit options until one final word prevails, allowing victory.

• Squabble, a competitive variant enabling players to face off against others in a timed setting, where hesitating leads to damage; survival of the fastest wins.

• Antiwordle, where players must avoid guessing the day’s solution. Any letters guessed correctly must be reused, making slower successes strategically advantageous.
