Wordle is a daily word puzzle game where your goal is to guess a hidden five-letter word in six tries or fewer. After each guess, the game gives feedback to help you get closer to the answer:
Use these clues to narrow down your guesses. Every day brings a new word, and everyone around the world is trying to solve the same puzzle. Some Wordlers also play Competitive Wordle against friends, family, the Wordle Bot or even against me, your humble narrator. See rules for Competitive Wordle toward the end of this post.

Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here.
BRACE just popped into my head and I plugged it in as my first guess. Kind of underwhelming results. ADIOS slashed the 235 remaining words down to 24, though Wordle Bot kindly informed me after that NATAL would have been more efficient. No kidding? SALTY left me with just one possible solution: NASAL for the win.
I get 0 points for guessing in four and -1 for losing to the Bot. The Bot gets 1 point for guessing in three and 1 for beating me. Our new August totals are now:
Erik: 3 points
Wordle Bot: 2 points
The word "nasal" comes from the Latin word nāsus, meaning "nose." It entered English via Middle Frenchnasal, which also derived from the Latin root. The suffix -al means "pertaining to," so nasal literally means "pertaining to the nose."
