Guess the 5-letter Hidden Word With Our Wordle Tips

Cracking the daily Wordle puzzle requires a certain flexibility and word know-how of the English language, but it's not impossible. Here are some tips to improve your Wordle gameplay.

• Start with common English vowels: Begin by guessing common English vowels - A, E, I, O, U, and sometimes Y - to increase your chances of hitting the hidden word.
• Look at Word Patterns: Observe word patterns and letter combinations. For instance, if "MOVIE" yields green squares on O and I, search for other five-letter words with O and I in those spots.
• Process of elimination: If you enter a word that doesn't get any green squares, eliminate those letters from your next guesses - it might sound obvious, but even Wordle players slip up. Also, don't focus on double letters, as it's a 5-letter word; it's unlikely though not impossible.
• Letter frequency matters: Prioritize frequent letters like E, A, T, O, and I. Common starting letters include T, O, A, and D, while E, S, T, and D are common ending letters.
• Explore multiple options: Utilize all six guesses wisely; avoid fixating on one possibility, particularly in the early attempts. Experiment with various letter combinations.
• Track your progress: Keep a record of incorrect letters, and the ratio of green/yellow squares. Tracking will help you recognize letter patterns and eliminate pointless moves.
• Practice: The more you play Wordle and other word games, the quicker you'll get at recognizing patterns to reveal the hidden 5-letter word. Using a Word Finder can enhance your vocabulary and puzzle-solving abilities.

Wordle FAQs

What are Wordle rules?

You get 6 tries to guess the 5-letter word. Each word guess has to be a valid English word; you can't just input random characters. If you get a green square, it's a correct letter in the right spot; if you get a yellow square, that letter is in the word but in the wrong position.
