I felt proud of all my deductions today, confident that I had solved Saturday's Wordle quickly. Of course, I got all but the last one wrong, and it was too far off the board for comfort, but at least I was consistently wrong in ways that ultimately proved useful. Still, a victory of sorts, right?

Today's answer has several implications. Sometimes the word is a thick iron rope, sometimes it is a collection of wires wrapped in rubber, sometimes it is a way to receive TV programs over the wire.

There are no double letters in today's puzzle.

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

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 displays five boxes in six columns each day, and it is up to you to decide which five-letter word is hidden within each box.

You want to start with a strong word like ALERT, which contains multiple vowels, common consonants, and non-repeating letters; press Enter and the box will show you the correct or incorrect answer. If the box goes to ⬛️, that means the letter is not in the secret word at all. A 🟨 means the letter is in the word but not in that position. 🟩 means that the correct letter is in the correct position.

The second time, as a complement to the first, uses another "good" word to cover the common letter missed the last time and at the same time tries to avoid the letter that we now know for sure is not present in today's answer.

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 (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 conceived by software engineer Josh Wardle as a surprise for his partner, who liked 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; 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.
