Wordle answers and hints for Thursday, December 8

Whether you're looking for the answer to today's Wordle, want to read a clue for the puzzle that will appear on December 8 (537), or have never played the game before and want to find a general hint or guide, you'll find it all on this page.

Sometimes it's nice to have an easy win. My second guess was buried in green, so between that and what I ruled out in my first guess, the answer today was (pretty much) obvious and confirmed in my next guess. Great start to a great day.

The word you need to find today refers to using evidence or logical reasoning to draw a conclusion or form an opinion about someone or something. To infer the true meaning behind someone's mood or words from their tone, behavior, or other additional knowledge. Today's answer is similar to, but not to be confused with, "imply."

If there is anything better than playing Wordle, it is playing Wordle well:

There is no pressure to complete it by midnight. So don't treat this game as something casual like a newspaper crossword, and if you come up blank, you can come back to it later.

There will be days when such green will be hidden away; the answer to the December 8 (537) Wordle is INFER.

The more past Wordle answers you can cram into your memory bank, the more likely you will be able to guess today's Wordle answer without accidentally choosing an already existing answer. Also, looking at past Wordle solutions can give you great ideas for fun starting words to keep your daily puzzles fresh.

Here are some recent Wordle solutions:

Wordle will show you five boxes in six columns each day, and it is up to you to decide which five-letter word is hidden in them.

You will want to start with a strong word like ALERT (opens in a new tab)-one that contains multiple vowels, common consonants, and non-repeating letters Press Enter and the box will show correct or incorrect. If the box goes to ⬛️, that means the letter is not in the secret word at all. means the letter is in the word but not in that position. means that the correct letter is in the correct position.

Then, the answer is to use another "good" word to cover a common letter that was missed last time, while trying to avoid a letter that we now know for certain is not present in today's answer.

Then just use what you have learned to narrow down the correct word. You can try a total of 6 times, and you can only use actual words (so you cannot fill the box with EEEEE to see if there is an E). Letters can be repeated (e.g. BOOKS).

Wordle was originally invented by software engineer Josh Wardle (opens in new tab) as a surprise for his partner, who loved word games. From there it spread to his family and was finally released to the public. The word puzzle game has since provided tremendous inspiration for games like Wordle (opens in new tab), focusing the daily gimmicks on music, math, and geography It wasn't long before Wordle became so popular that it was sold to the New York Times for a seven-figure price!
