Today’s Wordle Answer
ADORN
Part of speech: Verb
Meaning: To decorate something to make it more beautiful or attractive.
Example: Fresh flowers adorn the table.
Why ADORN Can Be Tricky
- Starts with a vowel: Many players favor consonant-first guesses, so A-words slip by.
- Vowels split apart: The A and O are separated, which is easy to overlook.
- No repeats: It’s all unique letters, so there are no double-letter clues to rely on.
One breakdown shows how fast a good opener narrows things down: after CRANE, only 12 words still fit, and after ADIEU, just 3.
Quick Strategy Tips
- Open with varied vowels: Words like ADIEU test several vowels at once.
- Track your greens and yellows: Write down where each letter can’t go.
- Don’t burn guesses: Once you have three or four letters, think about real words, not random combos.
