Wordle hints today for #1,367: Clues and answer for Monday, March 17
Hey, there! Welcome to the start of a new week. We hope you're well-rested and raring to go. Whenever you need a breather, there's a fresh round of Wordle to enjoy. For those who'd like a helping hand with it, here's our daily Wordle guide with some hints and the answer for Monday's puzzle (#1,367).
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.
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. 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 1,300 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.

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.

Older LGBTQ+ adults share their stories of coming out after 50
From a 90-year-old man finding the courage to come out to a former Baptist preacher revealing his authentic identity at 53, journalist Charles M. Blow uncovered the touching stories of everyday Americans who are embracing their true selves later in life. Bestselling author and former New York Times columnist Blow, who came out as bisexual at 40, made this decision after he became a public figure. He revealed his sexual orientation in his 2014 memoir "Fire Shut Up in my Bones," which is about his life growing up in Louisiana. "Late to the Party: Coming Out Later in Life," airing Friday, June 6, at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and streaming the next day on Hulu, follows Blow as he explores the experiences of older adults who have come out as LGBTQ+ later in life. At book signings, people thanked him for his courage and told him they also came out in their 50s or older. Blow realized that it's a phenomenon that needed to be explored and discussed more to help reduce stigma and shame. "Coming out late in life, you are not alone. You are not defective," he said. "You are a different expression of humanity, and you are just fine just the way that you are." For Dennis Meredith, who's featured in the docu-special, coming out at 53 meant confronting his entire career as a Baptist preacher. MORE: Transgender service members say they face 'heartbreaking' decision amid Trump ban His journey began when his own son came out, leading him and his then-wife to study what the Bible really says about homosexuality. "But what holds all of us back? We're afraid," Meredith said. Christopher McCrea spent 29 years in the military, believing he would never be able to come out and keep his job. "The reality of it is it's not a closet; it's a coffin," McCrea said. "It's a place of death and sadness." McCrea's story reflects the impact of policies like the Pentagon's "don't ask, don't tell" policy, which was in effect from 1994 to 2011 and forced many service members to hide their sexual identities. MORE: Hegseth orders Navy to rename ship honoring gay rights activist Harvey Milk After the policy's repeal, McCrea found the courage to come out at 47, though the journey wasn't easy, especially with his children. His daughter Kacie mentioned she repressed her feelings about the situation and didn't want to be "another bleeding heart" for her parents to worry about while they were dealing with their own issues. Ken Feltz also featured in the docu-special, waited even longer to come out, having revealed his sexuality at 90 to his family. While writing his life story during COVID-19 isolation, Ken finally opened up about his first true love, Phillip, whom he left decades ago due to societal pressure. "Even holding hands in public would get you arrested. They had to cure you," Feltz said of the era when he first fell in love. In the 1950s, he said he fell in love with a woman and lived a different life. Despite this, he said he never forgot Phillip. "I just knew that I had missed out on the one thing in my life that probably was the best thing in my life," he said. MORE: Who makes up the LGBTQ+ community? A look at the growing population For Erica, who asked that ABC only use her first name, coming out at 52 meant having difficult conversations with her Catholic parents. Her 81-year-old mother, Judy, showed remarkable acceptance. "It's not my job to judge. I love you for you. I always have and always will," Judy said, "I'm here to just love my daughter unconditionally." The stories shared demonstrate that while coming out later in life presents unique challenges, it's never too late to embrace one's true identity. "There is a price that has been paid for who I get to be today, but who I am is exactly who I'm meant to be," Jaime Zavala, who came out at 45, said.
