I have no idea what the first of the word connections is!

I got it again!! 6/8.

I meant to ask @ILoveAllRainbowsx if you do phrazle? (It's on the same website as WordHurdle) I really like it because you use the context of words in a phrase to help solve as well as the letters in each word. But you start with a blank grid which I like. You said how you like the word association element of xordle so I thought you might like this one too.

Interested in this thread?

@MarmiteWine how have you managed to do it in more than 8?

If you guess your first word on your last attempt it gives you an extra go to get the second word!

This made me laugh today. I like the playfulness of the word links.

@ILoveAllRainbowsx, no clues in Phrazle, but knowing how many letters in each word can definitely help with solving. It's still one of my favourites, after 300 games! It updates twice daily, so double the fun!

Most of the phrases are idioms you'll be familiar with, but there are the occasional ones that are very "American". I've also noticed that apostrophes are omitted, which definitely caught me out on one occasion.

There's also a linked puzzle called Clue Hurdle, click the word "Clue" in the green bar near the top of the screen.

I'm stuck on number 227. I've got one word, but the last one I can't make a word out of the available letters.
Does anyone fancy giving me a clue?

LosingTheWill2022 · 02/12/2022 20:50

Is it starting word swift? @picklemewalnuts

picklemewalnuts · 02/12/2022 20:51

Yes! I have the F word...

Not too shabby.

picklemewalnuts · 03/12/2022 08:19

Yes, @losingthewill! But can't make the last one work and have only one go left. I'm missing a letter. Is it a weird unusual example of the kind? Or weirdly spelled? I must be word blind.

It's not a weird or particularly unusual one.
Do you want a letter clue or subject clue?
