Word analysis

Every day I look at Wordle Bot to analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here.

SHARE was a good opening guess, although after that I had over 100 possible solutions and only a green “E” in the last box. For my second guess, CLOUT, I chose all new letters, which ended up being a good decision. I later learned that there were two other options, but all I could think about at the time was TITLE. Luckily it was Wordle – and not TILDE.

Competitive Wordle Score

I get 1 point for guessing three and 0 points for tying the bot. 1 x 2 for 2XP Friday = 2 points. Huzzah!

Today’s Wordle etymology

The word title comes from Old French Titerwhich in turn comes from Latin Titulus. In Latin, Titulus means an inscription, label, or heading, often used to indicate ownership or honor. Over time, the meaning expanded to include the designation of rank, honor or office. The use of title in English appeared around the 14th century and represented not only names or headings for literary works, but also terms that denoted status or rank.
