Never heard of the word which is the answer to Wordle today. Anyone else the same?

Today's word is AROMA for me? Is it not the same for everybody?

gogohm · 16/02/2022 14:59

It's sealant, they sell it in b&q. It's a normal word

Comefromaway · 16/02/2022 14:59

I got it in 3 which amazed me

CharacterForming · 16/02/2022 15:01

Aroma was yesterday (unless you had a link to the legacy site in which case it was Agora which genuinely is tricky).

Today's word is AROMA for me? Is it not the same for everybody?

Mine was AROMA a few days ago.

This made me laugh today...

Todays word struck me as slightly obscure but not unfairly so.

LilacPaisley · 16/02/2022 15:02

Mine was AROMA a few days ago

Or possibly yesterday:}

emmathedilemma · 16/02/2022 15:07

nope, not a clue what it is! I only got it through process of elimination of what letters I had that might make a word that sounded plausible (some of my attempts weren't even words!)

Unhomme · 16/02/2022 15:08

Hmm. Agora was yesterday. I'll be.ready for tomorrow's!!

I'm also doing quordle and worldle.teuteuf.fr/

PitchImperfect · 16/02/2022 15:09

Mine was agora yesterday & aroma today & then I refreshed to get the NYT version so I could do the same word as everyone else!

Pedalpushers · 16/02/2022 15:09

I got it while I was cleaning my teeth, the bathroom inspired me!

hanahsaunt · 16/02/2022 15:12

I am neither American nor a sailor but I have always read widely so a v familiar word.

RincewindsHat · 16/02/2022 15:17

I only knew it because I Googled how to do it recently and learned that was the word for what I wanted!

MrsMingech · 16/02/2022 15:23

I thought it had something to do with baby cows.

Until I Googled it.

thegreylady · 16/02/2022 15:24

It’s not American. Boatbuilders and decorators use it. It was a darn site easier than the agora/aroma one the other day.

@CorrBlimeyGG

You need to do more DIY? Nothing more satisfying than a good ***ing.
I quite agree 😁

... a relative said it was a 'weird' word, but doesn't seem weird to me, as I do lots of DIY and love ***ing!

Sidge · 16/02/2022 15:27

I didn't get it - first time I'v failed!

I used my last go on the same word with B instead of the starter letter. (Cryptic)

Sob. My record is now broken.

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 16/02/2022 15:29

I can honestly say I've never used that word in general conversation. I got it in 4 though.

YellowLemonshade · 16/02/2022 15:35

@JungleJimbo

Got it in second guess
Wow!! What did you start with?! That's amazing
Crimesean · 16/02/2022 15:40

@randomsabreuse

It was the bane of my life decorating, but I first learned it in a historical naval fiction context...
Me too!
whiteworldgettingwhiter · 16/02/2022 15:42

Hold on, my word was agora yesterday then a very similar one today - what's going on??

Silverswirl · 16/02/2022 15:42

Yes I’ve heard it a lot because FIL uses that quite a bit when he fixes and fills stuff

Mummyoflittledragon · 16/02/2022 15:44

Thanks for the clues. I got it in one and have been pronounced genius. Grin
