(To be sung to the tune of “The Twelve Days of Christmas”)
“On the Fourth Day of Christmas, my First Guess showed to me
Yellow letters — an N and an E
Then my Second Guess was RIVAL — To my delight I see
R, A and L — all five letters, but where should they be?
On my third guess, I pondered — and then it came to me
LEARN was the word — I solved in 3 — it’s so sweet when the squares all turn green”
LEARN was the word — I solved in 3 — it’s so sweet when the squares all turn green”
Some days in Wordle, you’re confronted by the circumstance that a common word you know very well is spelled in a manner that’s actually quite unusual. Today was that day for me. I had all five letters after Guess #2 - but none in the proper position. For Guess #3, I kept trying to separate the vowels and use them as Letters 2 & 4 — but that wasn’t working. I did eventually LEARN the answer. It didn’t take *that* long — but it *seemed* a lot longer. So I tied The Bot and bested the (current) NYT avg (3 vs 3.4). Looks like there will be lots of solves on first and second Guesses today — the Comments should be quite upbeat.
Take care and stay safe.
