Today’s Wordle Answer
If you’re ready to find out the answer, here it is:
ANVIL
What Does It Mean? An anvil is a heavy, usually metal tool used by blacksmiths. It has a flat top and often a rounded or pointed end (called a horn) for shaping and bending metal. Blacksmiths use it as a solid surface to hammer and forge metal into different shapes. The anvil helps absorb the force of the hammer blows and mold the metal accordingly.
Tips for Tomorrow’s Wordle
Think Wordle is all about luck? There’s actually a strategy to it! Your first guess is crucial, so try to pick words with lots of vowels (A, E, I, O, U). Some solid starting guesses are “adieu,” “media,” “arise,” and “radio.” Avoid words with repeating letters to make the most of your guesses.
For your second guess, use common consonants like R, S, and T based on what you learned from your first word. Examples include “stern,” “irate,” and “atone.” Remember not to reuse any letters that were marked gray in previous guesses—those letters aren’t in the word!
Happy guessing!
