A little further down this page you will find today's Wordle tips. There are also some general clues. Don't worry anymore; the answer to the August 14 (1152) wordle is also here.

Oh, perfect. The first time I noticed that it was around “about right” and then I realized that I was off by one letter, and the next line revealed the answer to today's wordle. I think I could have done it faster. Well, without peeking at the answer, anyway (peek at the answer if you want to win fast).

Today's answer is that strip where water meets land. Lakes and rivers also have these lines.

There are no double letters.

Playing Wordle well is like winning a small victory every day:

There is no time pressure. It doesn't hurt to come back later if you struggle to find an answer or find a tactical word for your next guess.

Hey, you might need this: the answer to the August 14 (1152) wordle is SHORE.

Knowing the answers to past wordls helps eliminate the possibility of the present. Since the same word is unlikely to be repeated, it helps to find clues for guesses and words you don't know.

Here are some recent Wordle solutions:

Wordle gives you six columns of five boxes each day, and your job is to eliminate or identify which five-letter word is hidden and which letter it contains.

You should start with strong words such as LEASH, i.e., words that contain multiple vowels, common consonants, and non-repeating letters; pressing Enter will show the correct or incorrect letter in the box. If the box goes to ⬛️, it 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, you should compliment the starting word, using another “good” guess to cover the common letter you missed last time, while avoiding the letter you now know for sure is not present in today's answer. Then simply use what you have learned to narrow down the correct word. You can try six times in all, and you can only use real words (so you can't fill the box with EEEEE to see if there is an E). Remember that letters can be repeated (e.g. BOOKS).

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.
