Typical Wordle: 2 vowels (counting Y as the sixth vowel), 1 compound (ex KN)/paired consonant (ex NN)
Today’s Wordle: RANCH (A-Typical)

NYT WordleBot average score: 3.5 (per Marc McLaren*)
WordleGuru score:  3 😊

Seed Word: ALTER: the first word of the triad – ALTER/SONIC/PUDGY.

2^nd Word: SONIC: the second word of the triad.
Reason for selection: Typical Wordle word has 2 vowels; the seed word revealed only 1 vowel. SONIC has the next 2 most frequent vowels (next to A and E).  It also has 3 high frequency consonants (S, N and C).
What we learned: Only one possible word!  Bingo!! 😊
Next step: Not needed!
