Try Semantle.

It's like Wordle in that you need to guess the word of the day, but works by semantics. So you input a word and it will tell you how close you are. You have infinite guesses.

For example, ysterday's word was 'costly' with expensive, cumbersome and burdensome being the three closest words.

I'm currently 840 words away with a similarity of 47%. I started at under 2%.

Anybody else attempting it?

@ClarasZoo

Please may I have a hint- I have 100 green words no higher than 970!!!
The answer isn’t a green word.

Thank you to BabbleBee I am off the hook (until tomorrow, at least).

I guess I should be grateful I got Wordle in 2...

Help meeeeeeeeeee

I think from what I understand of the question mark one, there are two lists of words, one is all the words the computer has to look at and the other is smaller. Not sure whether the second list is all the potential answers and these are planned in advance like wordle? But anyway if a word is very obscure it might not be in the second list.

Only the smaller list words are allowed to be in the top 1000, but the top 1000 are automatically collated from the second list.

Therefore, if a word is closer or equal in percentage than the word at 1/1000 but it's only in the full list, you get the ???.

I seem to have a theme, still plugging away but no luck with the actual answer.

Can I get a hint please. Highest I get is 977

I solved Semantle #33 in 65 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 6.52. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #16. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 29.74 (727/1000). semantle.novalis.org/

Well after yesterday's disaster I did much better today. Unconvinced it wasn't a fluke though! Kind of struck lucky with a sideways guess.

Haudyourwheesht · 03/03/2022 20:57

101 today.

lljkk · 03/03/2022 21:03

You're closer than I was before I got it right, Coffeekam. Be courageous, you'll get there.

ClarasZoo · 03/03/2022 21:17

Hooray- got it- with a little bit of help- thank you!!!!

Yesterdays word was bold and I found it difficult as I had two themes going. Bright, colourful and then words to describe a person as being bold
