The Answer: Today’s Wordle Wordle Analysis Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here . I’m a little sad because I very nearly got this one in three. If only I’d swapped the S and the T! STORE was a lucky opener, leaving me with 28 remaining words. LAYUP slashed this down to just two, though Wordle Bot had a stroke or something because when I was checking my score after getting the answer, even though it showed me having 2 words left, it gave me text saying I only had one. Clearly that wasn’t the case! I think I thought of PASTY instead of PATSY because when I was coming up with my second guess I thought of NASTY and HASTY and other AST words. Oh well, it was PATSY in the end. I’ll take all the blame for that. Competitive Wordle Score Both the Bot and I get 0 points today since we each guessed in four and tied.

Today’s Wordle Etymology The word patsy apparently comes from the Italian name Patsy, short for Pasquale, which was used in vaudeville productions and early 20th-century slang to refer to a gullible or easily deceived individual. In America in the early 20th century, the word came to mean someone who was set up to take the blame. Let me know how you fared with your Wordle today on Twitter , Instagram or Facebook.
