Wordle Hints and Answers #621: Thursday, March 2

Turn unruly yellow into green letters with help from Wordle (open in new tab). Keep scrolling and you'll find everything from general advice on making the most of every guess, to helpful hints for the March 2 (621) puzzle, and if you don't have the ideas, time, or patience, just below that is today's Wordle answer.

I didn't find anything particularly unusual today, but it wasn't a worthless opening. It was just that the third guess completely screwed things up. Fortunately, I was eventually able to undo it, but it was more dangerous than it needed to be.

Today's clue is this: any object that is higher than what is currently below can be described as being ____. For example, an airplane flying above the clouds. The same word can also be used to talk about someone who feels he or she is too good for the job "below" or better than others. Find three different vowels today.

No letter is used twice in today's puzzle.

If this is your first time trying a daily wordle puzzle, or if you've been absent for a while and need a refresher, let me give you a quick tip to help you win. Nothing makes the rest of your day more fulfilling than a small victory.

There is no timer. If you get stuck, there's no shame in going back to the puzzle later that day and finishing it when your head is clear.

Coming soon: the answer to the March 2 (621) Wordle is above.

Keeping track of the last handful of Wordle answers helps eliminate the current possibilities. It is also useful for inspiring opening words and subsequent guesses if you are short on ideas for the day.

Here are the last 10 answers in Wordle:

Wordle displays five boxes in six columns each day, where the goal is to figure out the correct five-letter word by entering a guess and deleting or checking the individual letters.

Getting a good start on a strong word like ARISE (open in new tab), i.e., one that contains multiple vowels, common consonants, and non-repeating letters, is a good tactic; pressing Enter will display the correct or incorrect answer in the box. 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.

The second guess complements the starting word and uses another "good" word to cover the common letter missed last time, while at the same time trying to avoid the letter that we now know for sure is not present in today's answer. With any luck, a few colored squares will be created and you will be on the right track.

Then it is just a matter of using 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 (you cannot fill in the box with EEEEE to see if there is an E). Letters can be repeated (e.g. BOOKS).

Originally, Wordle was 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!
