Yesterday’s Wordle Answers

Yesterday's Wordle was relatively easy. The clue was "basketball sounds" and the answer contained four common letters and one uncommon letter.

Yesterday's Wordle's answer was SWISH.

Getting Started with Wordle Basics

The idea of ​​Wordle is to guess the secret word of the day. When you first open the Wordle game, you will see an empty grid of letters. It's up to you to take the first step: enter any five-letter word.

Now you can use the displayed color to get clues about the word: green means you guessed a letter correctly and it's in the correct position. (For example, if you guessed PARTY and the word was actually PURSE, the P and R would be green.)

  • Yellow means the letter is somewhere in the word, but not where you guessed it would be. (For example, if you guessed PARTY but the word was actually ROAST, the R, A, and T would all be yellow.)

  • Gray means the letter is not in the solution word at all. (If you guessed PARTY and everything is gray, the solution cannot be PURSE or ROAST.)

With all this in mind, guess a word, then another, trying to find the right word before you lose your chance. You have six guesses and then the game is over.

Best starting words for Wordle

For the first guess, what should you play? The best starters tend to include common letters to increase your chances of getting yellow and green squares to guide your guessing. (If you get all gray when guessing common letters, this is still excellent information to help you rule out possibilities.) There's no one "best" starting word, but the New York Times' Wordle analysis bot suggests starting with one of the following Start with: these:

  • crane

  • trace

  • tilt

  • box

  • Carter

Meanwhile, an MIT analysis found that starting with one of the following will eliminate most possibilities in your first round:

  • Salet

  • Rest

  • trace

  • box

  • slate

Other good options might be ARISE or ROUND. Words like ADIEU and AUDIO will have more vowels, but you might say it's better to start by emphasizing the consonants, using an opening word like RENTS or CLAMP. Choose your strategy and see how it works.

How to win on Wordle

We have some Wordle strategy guides that you might enjoy reading if you are a serious student of the game. This chapter explains how to use consonants to your advantage, and this chapter focuses on strategies for using the most common letters. In this advanced guide , we detail a three-pronged approach to finding tips while maximizing your chances of winning quickly.

The biggest difference between Wordle winners and Wordle losers is that winners use their guesses to gather information about the letters in the word . If you know the word must end in -OUND, don't waste four guesses on MOUND, ROUND, SOUND, and HOUND; combine the consonants and guess MARSH. If H lights up yellow, you know the solution.

A few more notes on strategy: The original Wordle used a list of about 2,300 solution words, but after the game was purchased by The New York Times, the game now has an editor who hand-picks solutions . Sometimes they're slightly trickier words that wouldn't have appeared on the original list, and sometimes they're popular words. For example, FEAST is the Thanksgiving solution. So keep in mind, there may be a theme.

Wordle alternatives

If you can't get enough of the five-letter guessing game and its cousins, the best Wordle alternatives (ranked by difficulty) include:

  • Wheeldle, which lets you play puzzle after puzzle

  • Dordle and Quordle , which requires you to play two (Dordle) or four (Quordle) puzzles at the same time and make the same guess. There's also Octordle , with 8 puzzles, and Sedecordle , with 16 puzzles.

  • Waffles , which shows you several five-letter words arranged in a grid ; you play by swapping letters until you solve them.

  • Absurdle , changes the solution after each guess but needs to be consistent with previous feedback. You have to strategically back it into the corner until there's only one possible word left; then you guess correctly and you win.

  • Squabble lets you play Wordle with other people while the timer is running . If you take too much time between guesses, you'll take damage; the winner is the last person standing.

  • Antiwordle , you try not to guess the day's solution . You need to reuse any letter you (oops) guess correctly, so the longer you take it, the better you get at the game.
