Learn more about Wordle
Wordle gives you six rows of five boxes each day, and it’s your job to find which five-letter word is hidden by eliminating or confirming the letters it contains.
Starting with a strong word (opens in new tab) like LEASH—something with lots of vowels, common consonants, and no repeated letters—is a good place to start. Once you press enter, the boxes will show you which letters you got right or wrong. If a box turns ⬛️, it means that the letter is not in the secret word at all. 🟨 means the letter is in the word, but not in this position. means you have the right letter in the right place.
Your second pass should compliment the original word, using another “good” guess to cover any common letters you missed last time, while also trying to avoid any letter you now know because it’s not in today’s answer. After that, it’s just a case of using what you’ve learned to narrow down your guesses to the correct word. You have six tries in total and can only use real words (so don’t fill the boxes with YYYY to see if there’s an E). Don’t forget letters can also be repeated (eg BOOKS).

Originally, Wordle dreamed of a software engineer Josh Wardle (opens in new tab), as a surprise for his partner who loves word games. From there it spread to his family and eventually to the public. The word puzzle game has since inspired many games like Wordle (opens in new tab), refocusing the everyday trick around music or math or geography. It didn’t take long before Wordle became so popular sold to the New York Times for seven figures (opens in new tab). Surely it’s only a matter of time before we all communicate exclusively in three-color boxes.
