It’s Friday, and if you’re aiming to keep your Wordle streak alive heading into the weekend, we’re here to help. Below you’ll find helpful clues for today’s puzzle — including the first letter and a few context hints — along with the full answer if you’re completely stumped.

Whether you’re a seasoned solver or new to Wordle, let’s break it down.

🧩 What Is Wordle and How Does It Work?

Wordle is a daily word puzzle where the objective is simple: guess a five-letter word in six tries or fewer. But don’t let the simplicity fool you — this word game rewards strategy, vocabulary, and deduction.

Created by Josh Wardle and launched in 2021, Wordle became a global phenomenon after players began sharing their results via emoji-based grids. In 2022, The New York Times acquired the game, and by 2024 it had amassed over 5.3 billion plays.

Wordle is available for free on the NYT Games website, in their apps, on Meta Quest, and even on Discord.

🎮 How to Play Wordle

  1. Guess any five-letter word.

  2. The game uses colors to indicate feedback:

    • 🟩 Green – correct letter, right spot

    • 🟨 Yellow – correct letter, wrong spot

    • Gray – letter not in the word

  3. Use these clues to narrow down your next guess.

  4. You have six attempts in total.

Keep in mind: letters can appear more than once, and grayed-out letters can still be reused.

🔁 Play More Than Once Per Day?

Yes! If you’re a NYT Games subscriber, you can access the Wordle archive, which includes over 1,400 past puzzles. You also get access to Wordle Bot, a tool that breaks down how efficiently you solved the word each day.
