Today’s word is actually really hard… it’s one of those words which is close to a whole lot of other ones, so it’s hard to understand the similarity scores from a human perspective. But I’ve played this game before, and the scores are usually much easier to make sense of.
- gus_massa 4y agoOne of the underrated features of the original Wordle is that the world to guess is selected from a short list (2,315 words) instead of the full dictionary (10,657 words). The short list is very well selected and it makes the game more fun to play.
- dr_orpheus 4y agoTry Semantle Junior. I don't know exactly how it selects the "easier words" though Edit: So the way he grabs words for the original is out of the 5000 "most popular" words in English. Still not sure about the Junior version, maybe it is an even more restricted list. Or it looks like it might just be restricted to nouns since it does seem to be easier to guess things close to a physical item.

- yongjik 4y agoI think semantle also chooses from a pretty short list of words. All the answers were very common words, while in the "closest word list" you can see all kind of crazy words like "ethnocracy" and "coextensive."
- code_runner 4y agoI was able to piece together the word, though I was surprised when I was right. Without spoiling the answer, I did sort of walk down the path to the answer in an almost logical way
- sharkette 4y agoMain semantle. My mum got today's answer in 53 guesses, my sister in 157 and myself in 163 but only after mum ruined it by trying to give me a hint!! Mum turned 80 yesterday, sister turned 50 2 weeks ago and I'm 55.75 now. 5 June 2022 We play it like the 20 questions car game from the 1970's, by starting with smalk, mineral, vegetable, but have added a few more class headers, as we call them, chemical, emotion, transport, colour, human, etc.... Junior is usually played the same with easier words, so can be found quicker, Eg I always play animal as my first word and the other day that's what it was so boom! found it in 1 guess! Hooked!!
