Every day Wordle offers six rows of five boxes and you must guess which five-letter word is hidden between them to win the daily puzzle.

Start with a strong word like ALIVE – or any other word with a good mix of common consonants and lots of vowels. You should also avoid starting words with repeated letters so as not to waste the opportunity to confirm or eliminate an extra letter. After entering your answer and pressing Enter, you will see which letters are correct and which are incorrect. If the box turns ⬛️, it means that this letter is not in the secret word at all. 🟨 means the letter is in the word but not in that position. 🟩 means you have the right letter in the right place.

Your second guess should complement your first, using another “good” word to cover up any common letters you may have missed in the first place – just be sure to avoid letters that you now know don’t appear in today’s answer. Then all you need to do is use what you’ve learned to narrow down your guesses to the right word. You have six attempts in total and you can only use real words, but don’t forget that letters can also be repeated (e.g. BOOKS).

Wordle was originally invented by a software engineer Josh Wardleas a surprise for your partner who loves word games. From there it spread to his family and was eventually released to the public. Since then, the word puzzle game has inspired many people games like Wordlefocusing everyday tricks around music, math or geography. It didn’t take long for Wordle to become so popular sold to the New York Times for a seven-figure sum. Surely it’s only a matter of time before we all communicate only in three-colored boxes.
