Wordle ** WARNING: THERE ARE PROBABLY HINTS TO THE DAILY WORD IN HERE **

[haaammit]

In 5 today. Certainly a word I know, but not one I'd use daily lol. Took a bit of finagling and head scratching to get it.

Spoiler: Words what I used

Spoiler: Are you sure?

MOIST
INERT
LIGHT
CUBIT

Spoiler: And the actual word for future reference

TACIT

 

[randal]

4 today.






Bit of a leap on the last word. Agree @haaammit, definitely more of the more head scratchy efforts.

 

[fez]

Half the people doing wordle will never have heard of that word. I just sat with my partner while she was doing it and it allows you to put in all kinds of non-words as well.

I got it in 3

I was a bit lucky to get it that quickly I think.

Given recent words I am expecting double letters which helped I think.

 

[ltron]

Had four letters after the first two tries today, took me until six to get the word. Never heard of it before.

Impressive that you got it at all given the word was unfamiliar. It's certainly not a word that's in common use these days.

Knew a-level economics would be useful one day!

 

[ChroniC]

Going to give up playing if they keep purposely choosing such words

 

[ChroniC]

Spoiler: Why?

Spoiler: Click for hint about answer

Without knowing your first word, that looks like such an illogical second guess. You've had to guess that the answer includes a double letter that you didn't even have any information about from your first guess.

Cause it's BS that's why

Yeah that's me out I did get it on the sixth guess but it was truly a guess as I had to go through all the different combinations (I had the first three letters) to find a word I have never heard in my life. Am obviously not smart enough to play this anymore if this is what's going to happen going forward.

 

[Lysander]

Got it in four today.

I wasn't sure of the word but guessed what it logically could be given my first three guesses, did a Google to see if it was a word, then entered it.

 

[kinetic747]

5 today.

 

[Russinating]

Stupid word today. Never heard of it before, couldn't define it, only got it on my 5th because I literally inputted every remaining letter into the middle slot and the first 6 inputs didn't create valid words.

 

[Alibaba99]

Must be my age but didn't need to use a dictionary to know what the answer meant.

 

[cheesyboy]

Amazed so many are unfamiliar with the word, tbh.

I searched the forum and it gets used here from time to time. Once by me

 

[robfosters]

I think a few on here should get a dictionary for their Secret Santa this year

I’m unsure whether people are complaining the word is too hard or their vocabulary is poor. I suspect the latter

 

[Jono8]

Why does everyone continue this silly narrative about it getting harder etc?

It has taken me 5, sometimes 6 guesses to get really common words and it only took me 3 to get todays.

It is almost all based on how close your starting guesses are...

You can be as high and mighty as you want, but it's been used 183 times on this forum (GD) in 16 years, assuming none are typos. God knows how many millions of posts that's out of.

That's hardly a common word, which is what the whole point of the circa 1,900 possible/25,000 dictionary words is supposed to be for.

 

[robgmun]

Took all 6 guesses and i cheesed it a little. Down to only needing to guess the first letter and just went through the possibilities before getting it.
