Hail Mary on the last chance.

Woo hoo! Two today!

Good god that was terrible. Have your dictionaries handy.

I guessed and got it in 3

same.

Guessed it but I've never heard of it either

Got it in 5 even though I got two letters in their right slot on first try.

Feels like today is a repeat, anyone?

Maybe. How many five letter words can there be?

There are 12,972 five letter words in the English language. That’s like 35 years worth of words

But most of those are too obscure to be used as Wordle words. We've just had such a a long run of more-obscure-than-usual words that a basic word like today's word makes it seem like it should have been used already. It hasn't, though

Nailed it

I start with RAISE or ARISE.

Good lord. Six today…

Maybe then they’ll finally change the game to six-letter words because Wordle has six letters and that would make more sense.
