How to solve today's Wordle.
Looking for Monday's Wordle hints, clues and answer? You can find them here:
It's the second-to-last day of April and the Wordles just keep coming. We're past the halfway mark as far as Wordle answers go, with something like a total of 2,300. After that? I doubt the New York Times calls it quits. Maybe we start over, or move to six-letter words. I'm very curious. In the meantime, we'll keep plugging away. Let's solve today's!
The Hint: Pure happiness.
The Clue: This Wordle has a double letter in it—again (for like the fifth day in a row).
Okay, spoilers below!

Today's Wordle
Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here.
There's no way I can catch up with the Bot at this point, unless tomorrow I get it in 1 or 2. I'm four points down, so if I get it in 1 and the Bot gets it in three, I'd get 3 points for guessing in 1 and another for beating the Bot. The Bot would get 0 points and we'd tie. If the Bot took four tries, he'd be at -1, and I'd win by a hair. If I got it in 2 and the Bot took 5 tries, I'd win by 1 point. These are incredibly unlikely scenarios.
In any case, TRADE was a very bad opener, leaving me with 371 words, but SPOIL slashed that down to just 1: BLISS for the win!

I get 1 point for guessing in three and 0 for tying the Bot and the Bot gets the same, bumping each of our April scores to:
Erik: 13 points
Wordle Bot: 17 points
The word bliss comes from Old English blīths, meaning "joy," "cheer," or "intense happiness." It is related to blīthe (meaning "happy" or "gentle"), which survives today as blithe. Both trace back to Proto-Germanic blithiz ("gentle, kind, happy") and ultimately to Proto-Indo-European roots meaning "to rejoice" or "be gentle."
