Daily Wordle Tips

I’ve written a lot about Wordle — from covering his 1,000th word to my list of best starting words to a useful two-step strategy to the news on controversial word changes. I even rounded What I learned from playing the hit online word puzzle for a full year. If you are rethinking your need for a real answer, you can try the advice from one of these stories.

Still need a parting word? One person told me that she would simply look around and choose a five-letter object that she had spotted as her starting word, like COUCH or CHAIR. I tend to stick to seed words that contain the most popular letters used in English words. I like TRAIN to begin with, although I have a friend who uses TRAIL. I read that people use the financial term ROATEbut I like to use words that I actually know.

What is Wordle?

If you’ve read this far, you know how to play. You have six chances to guess a five-letter word, and the game tells you whether or not the letters you guessed are in the puzzle, and whether they are in the same place you guessed them. The New York Times bought the game from creator Josh Wardle for seven digits in 2022. Wardle created the game for her partner and let her reduce the 12,000 five-letter words in the English language to just 2,500, creating the database of answers. It was also convenient that it had a name that played on the “word”.

A Times spokesperson told me that the very first Wordle appeared on June 19, 2021, and that the newspaper celebrated the game’s 1,000th word on March 15. Spoiler: That 1,000th word was ERUPT. As in “Daddy will burst if the Wordle is so hard he loses his streak.”
