Today’s Wordle definition

And here’s what it means, according to our good friend ChatGPT:

“A snack is a small portion of food generally eaten between meals. Snacks come in a variety of forms including packaged snack foods and other processed foods, as well as items made from fresh ingredients at home. They can be designed to be portable, quick, and satisfying. Snacks may be eaten for a variety of reasons such as in response to hunger or to provide energy during the day. They can also serve as a social ritual or a means of entertainment (like during a movie, a sports match, or a party).”

Tips for tomorrow’s Wordle

It might seem like Wordle is all luck, but there are a few good practices you can use to help get as many clues as possible in just a few guesses, making it that much more likely you can figure out the final word before you run out of tries. The most important guess is your first, and the trick is to load up on vowels (A, E, I, O, and U).

Some popular starting words people have had good luck with are “adieu,” “media,” “arise,” and “radio.” Just make sure not to pick a word with double letters, or you’re wasting precious guesses. The aim here is to try to figure out which vowels the mystery word contains, then layer in common consonants and close in from there.
