Wordle Bulletin #695 (May15, 2023) — “Aaah the sight of a 2! What a feeling!!” 😊
Today’s Wordle:
Target Word: CANOE (A-Typical – 3 vowels, no compound consonant)
# Of Guesses: 3.6 WordleBot average per Marc McLaren*, 2 for WordleGuru 😊😊
Seed Word: ROATE: first word of the triad – ROATE/SULCI/NYMPH.
What we learned from the Seed Word: presence of three vowels (O, A and E) but not the positions of O/A and E in the 5th position. Seven possibilities including several orthographic neighbor words – ADOBE, ALONE, [ABODE, ANODE], ABOVE, AWOKE, and CANOE.
2nd Word: CANOE: My gut feel was leading me to CANOE. The rest of the 6 words all started with an A. I decided to take a chance with CANOE. Luckily it worked. Had it not worked I could have ended up with a score of 4 easily. Must be my lucky day.
Final Thoughts: Wordle is a game of luck and skill. Sometimes luck favors the game and sometimes it favors the player. Today luck was in my corner. 😊😊😊
