Stuck on today’s Wordle? A solver is just a smart way to use what you already know — the letters you’ve ruled in, the ones you’ve ruled out, and where the green ones sit. Here’s how to narrow it down without spoiling the fun.
How to Solve With Your Clues
Start with what you know. Write down your green letters in their exact spots, your yellow letters somewhere else in the word, and your grey letters — the ones that are out for good. Then look for words that fit the pattern, not just words you like. A pattern like S _ A _ K, for example, leaves far fewer options than it looks like at first.
Three Solver Habits That Help
First, test new letters with every guess — repeating a grey letter tells you nothing. Second, when a yellow letter won’t settle, try it in a spot you haven’t tried yet instead of guessing the same shape twice. And third, watch the endings: Y, E and K endings all behave differently, and today’s puzzle is a good example of why the ending matters.
