The author’s game, starting with SPOIL, wasn’t terrible, leaving 101 words.

The Wordle Bot used CRANE as its first guess.
Both used CRANE, BOOTH as their third and fourth guesses.
So it seems a tie was in order!

Wordle Etymology: Where Do Words Come From?
Ever wonder about the origins of the words we use every day?
The etymology of “tooth” is quite fascinating.
It originates from the Old English *tōþ*, which comes from the Proto-Germanic *tanþs*.
This, in turn, traces back to the Proto-Indo-European root *dent- or *dont-, meaning “tooth,” which is also the source of Latin *dens, dentis* and Greek *odous, odontos*.
Who knew a simple five-letter word could have such a rich history?
Wordle Strategies: Tips and Tricks to Up Your Game
Want to become a Wordle master?
Here are a few strategies to help you improve your game:
- Start with a word that has a mix of common vowels and consonants. Some popular choices include “ADIEU,” “ALERT,” and “IRATE.”
- The answer might repeat the same letter. Don’t be afraid to guess words with double letters, as today’s answer demonstrates.
- Try not to use guesses that include letters you’ve already eliminated. This seems obvious, but it’s easy to get caught up in the moment and make a careless guess.
Remember, Wordle is a marathon, not a sprint.
Take your time, analyze the clues, and don’t be afraid to experiment.
And most importantly, have fun!
