Key Insights
What does it mean when a letter turns yellow or green in Wordle?
In Wordle, colored tiles provide feedback on your guesses. A green tile indicates that the letter is in the word and in the correct position. A yellow tile means the letter is in the word but in the wrong position. A gray tile (or no tile) indicates that the letter is not in the word at all.
Why do some Wordle answers seem unfamiliar or difficult to guess?
Wordle's daily answers are drawn from a curated list of 2,309 words selected by the game's editor. The editor intentionally removes words that are particularly difficult to deduce due to having too many common letter combinations, and avoids obscure words. However, some answers may still be unfamiliar to players because the editor occasionally selects less common words or words with regional specificity, such as 'condo,' which is U.S.-specific. The editor also sometimes aligns the daily word with significant dates to add thematic relevance.
