Wordle offers five boxes in six columns each day, so to keep the winning streak going, you need to find the secret five-letter word hidden in them.

You should start with strong words like ARISE or other words that have a good mix of common consonants and multiple vowels. You also do not want to start with words that begin with repeated letters, as this wastes the chance to delete or check for extra letters; pressing Enter will tell you which ones are right or wrong. If the box goes to ⬛️, it means that the character is not in the secret word. means the letter is in the word but not in that position. means that the correct letter is in the correct position.

The next guess complements the first guess, using another "good" word to cover a common letter you may have missed last time, while at the same time trying to avoid a letter you now know for sure is not present in today's answer. After that, it's just a matter of using what you've learned to narrow down the correct word. In all, you can try six times, and you can only use actual words.

Wordle was originally conceived by software engineer Josh Wardle as a surprise for his partner, who loved word games. From there it spread to his family and was finally released to the public. Since then, the word puzzle game has spawned a slew of Wordle-like games, focusing the daily gimmicks on music, math, and geography, and it wasn't long before Wordle became so popular that it was sold to the New York Times for a seven-figure sum. Indeed, it would only be a matter of time before we would be communicating solely through tricolored boxes.
