Wordle hints today for #1,451: Clues and answer for Monday, June 9
Hey, there! Welcome to the start of a new week. We hope it's a wonderful one for you. Whenever you need a little downtime today, you'll have a new round of Wordle to keep you company, at least for a few moments. In case you need some help to solve it, here's our daily Wordle guide with some hints and the answer for Monday's puzzle (#1,451). It may be that you're a Wordle newcomer and you're not completely sure how to play the game. We're here to help with that too. Wordle is a deceptively simple daily word game that first emerged in 2021. The gist is that there is one five-letter word to deduce every day by process of elimination. The daily word is the same for everyone. Wordle blew up in popularity in late 2021 after creator Josh Wardle made it easy for players to share an emoji-based grid with their friends and followers that detailed how they fared each day. The game's success spurred dozens of clones across a swathe of categories and formats. The New York Times purchased Wordle in early 2022 for an undisclosed sum. The publication said that players collectively played Wordle 5.3 billion times in 2024. So, it's little surprise that Wordle is one of the best online games and puzzles you can play daily. To start playing Wordle, you simply need to enter one five-letter word. The game will tell you how close you are to that day's secret word by highlighting letters that are in the correct position in green. Letters that appear in the word but aren't in the right spot will be highlighted in yellow. If you guess any letters that are not in the secret word, the game will gray those out on the virtual keyboard. However, you can still use those letters in subsequent guesses. You'll only have six guesses to find each day's word, though you still can use grayed-out letters to help narrow things down. It's also worth remembering that letters can appear in the secret word more than once. Wordle is free to play on the NYT's website and apps, as well as on Meta Quest headsets and Discord. The game refreshes at midnight local time. If you log into a New York Times account, you can track your stats, including the all-important win streak. If you have a NYT subscription that includes full access to the publication's games, you don't have to stop after a single round of Wordle. You'll have access to an archive of more than 1,400 previous Wordle games. So if you're a relative newcomer, you'll be able to go back and catch up on previous editions. In addition, paid NYT Games members have access to a tool called the Wordle Bot. This can tell you how well you performed at each day's game. Before today's Wordle hints, here are the answers to recent puzzles that you may have missed: Yesterday's Wordle answer for Sunday, June 8 — LEASE Saturday, June 7 — REUSE Friday, June 6 — EDIFY Thursday, June 5 — DATUM Wednesday, June 4 — CEASE Every day, we'll try to make Wordle a little easier for you. First, we'll offer a hint that describes the meaning of the word or how it might be used in a phrase or sentence. We'll also tell you if there are any double (or even triple) letters in the word. In case you still haven't quite figured it out by that point, we'll then provide the first letter of the word. Those who are still stumped after that can continue on to find out the answer for today's Wordle. This should go without saying, but make sure to scroll slowly. Spoilers are ahead. Here is a hint for today's Wordle answer: Something you might skate on while wearing shorts or sit on while wearing a suit. There are no repeated letters in today's Wordle answer. The first letter of today's Wordle answer is B. This is your final warning before we reveal today's Wordle answer. No take-backs. Don't blame us if you happen to scroll too far and accidentally spoil the game for yourself. What is today's Wordle? Today's Wordle answer is... BOARD Not to worry if you didn't figure out today's Wordle word. If you made it this far down the page, hopefully you at least kept your streak going. And, hey: there's always another game tomorrow.

Thousands flock to NYC's famed Puerto Rican Day Parade: ‘It's beautiful'
The Puerto Rican Day Parade drew huge crowds to Manhattan on Sunday, with revelers putting their pride on boisterous display in what organizers called the largest cultural festival in the country. Bomba music blasted along the Fifth Avenue parade route throughout the day as the sun beat down and everybody in sight was all smiles in a sea of red, white and blue clothing. 'Everybody's having a good time. When we represent Puerto Rico, we represent their heart,' said Chris Santiago, 23, of The Bronx, who has been to the event every year since he was a child. 'I'm celebrating the way Puerto Ricans are celebrating: having a good time, drinking too much alcohol and just having fun and representing Puerto Rico,' he said. 'Everybody knows if you're Puerto Rican, you already know how we get down.' Santiago wasn't wrong. The party was pumping from Midtown through the Upper East Side with attendees including Puerto Rican super rapper Bad Bunny. Dancing pervaded among the young and old in what 30-year-old Destiny Napoleoni called 'beautiful. 'You see everybody out here. We're representing ourselves, our history, all of that. But this is us,' she said. 'We get to sit here and represent ourselves, love ourselves regardless no matter what race. But today it's all of us out here, all one, together, united.' Sunday's parade was the 68th annual event. It wasn't clear how many people turned out for this year's parade, but organizers had predicted more than 1 million attendees and participants. Among them was 35-year-old Lisa Santiago, a Lower East Side native who previously attended the parade with her father every year. She celebrated Sunday for the first time without him after he recently passed away. 'We would just kind of celebrate here, listen to the music, dance, pass the rum, the Bacardi,' said Santiago, who was wearing a baseball jersey and gold Yankees pendant that belonged to her dad — saying she felt like his spirit was dancing alongside her. She said she had mixed emotions but believes that her dad was with her in spirit. 'It's a lot. To be honest, a little bit of sadness with so much joy. He is [here]. He definitely is. Believe me, he is. Every single time I wave the flag,' she said.
