I don't see the big deal, but some people are crazy about it.

is the numbers one which is not as good but still enjoyable.

@Eminybob
"But yesterday was a 6, as I guessed all the other bloody ight words before light!"

In a situation like this where it can be Light,Tight, Fight, Right, Sight etc, you're better off trying to come up with a word from as many as possible of the missing letter choices, ie L,T,F,R,S. eg FIRST.
(That's assuming you have more than one row left to fill, otherwise you have to guess one of the ?ight words)

Odd. I wonder why. Maybe they wanted to try playing it.

I’ve got today’s in 2 so I’m currently feeling like a Boss 😂 I’m waiting for the day my starter word is the word and then I’m gonna stop playing….

Viviennemary · 03/02/2022 13:16

Ive decided to start of with the same two words which will give me all the vowels. Its working a bit better. Somebody said something sbout a numbers one. Can't find it. Anyone know.

haggisaggis · 03/02/2022 12:11

I thought it was an app too...did find an app called "Wordie" which is basically the same thing but you are not restricted to one a day.

ThinWomansBrain · 03/02/2022 12:00

"discovered" it in the early hours of this morning - after it's been all over the news Grin
really like it - got my first one in 3, so happy

bit dangerous to have discovered there's an archive, but maybe I ought to practice...

WhatsitWiggle · 01/02/2022 22:26

Ooh it's like Lingo, this is fun. Haven't seen it before.

There you go. Hopefully today's attempt doesn't show up copying the link but maybe wait till tomorrow just in case 🤣

MimiDaisy11 · 01/02/2022 21:42

I had been using Rogue thinking that was good to get three vowels out but didn’t think of words like Audio with four. Also will need to check out different languages. Didn’t realise those existed. Thanks 😊

Rizzoli123 · 01/02/2022 20:29

I love it. It helped my dyslexia lots. Has anyone the maths one needle?

Newchallenge · 01/02/2022 19:27

Yes I'm enjoying it, and some of the others (bardle, nerdlegame not so much)

SD1978 · 01/02/2022 19:24

Flipping heck, the pile on to someon who didn't mean to spoil a game that takes all of 5 minutes and the number of days 'ruined' 'spoiled' or coffee breaks destroyed.........get a flipping grip. The woman didn't know, apologised, and a pack of you descended........it's patheric. And todays word is..........I won't, but seriously. She didn't know Hmm

Alonelonelylonersbadidea · 01/02/2022 19:19

Oooo I want to do it in different languages
I'd never heard of this until just now. Got my first in 3.
How do you get different languages. Is it settings? I couldn't see it on there.

MrsRobinsonsHandprints · 01/02/2022 12:36

@crazyjinglist

Anyway... I quite like it. I'm a language teacher, so I do it in 4 different languagesIt's interesting to see how differently your guessing progresses in each language, depending on the most common letters, structure of words etc. There's a lot of luck involved because of the importance of what your first word is though.

Show off Grin

Yeah, a bit Grin. But at least it is my job, so I figured it was a bit less show-offy than airily saying 'Oh I just happen to speak 4 languages. Doesn't everyone?'

Grin glad you took it in the right way Grin
JaneJeffer · 01/02/2022 12:17

Well I did it and it told me I'm a genius Grin

thaegumathteth · 01/02/2022 11:51

God almighty yes I play it but I'm not going to be gutted if someone gives me the answer by mistake .

Honestly, ffs.

Mamamia7962 · 01/02/2022 11:18

Have just discovered this game, very addictive but then I like word games.

@TheLovleyChebbyMcGee

I've reported your comment as it contains spoilers, poor show!!!

Yes I like to play it, well, Not today I don't.....

She's already apologised, give her a break for goodness sake.

No need to berate her with lots of !!!

If that's all you have to worry about today, count your blessings.

TheDoveFromAboveCooCoo · 01/02/2022 08:58

Omg I got it in 3!!!!

Purplewithred · 01/02/2022 08:56

Did it 3 times, not that interested and hate the competitive "did it in 2!" Facebook posts everywhere. (Especially if it took me 4). Sticking to Sudoku thanks.

TheDoveFromAboveCooCoo · 01/02/2022 08:55

Ah thanks all!

squashyhat · 01/02/2022 08:55

It's not an app www.powerlanguage.co.uk/wordle/

listsandbudgets · 01/02/2022 08:54

@TheDoveFromAboveCooCoo

Now I am incredible confused.

I have downloaded 2 apps now called Wordle and neither of them are the thing that's on here!

Its not an app but a Web page. Just Google it and it comes up powerlanguage.co.uk/ wordle

I made the same error with the app at first and got confused too.
