Today's ‘Wordle' #1384 Hints, Clues And Answer For Thursday, April 3rd

How to solve today's Wordle. Looking for Wednesday's Wordle hints, clues and answer? You can find them here: Yesterday I gave out a pretty long and I think somewhat challenging brain-teaser for you fine Wordlers to solve for Wordle Wednesday. Today, I will provide the answer. This was the puzzle: A Bridge Puzzle of Strategy, Speed... and Stolen Gold FEATURED | Frase ByForbes™ Unscramble The Anagram To Reveal The Phrase Pinpoint By Linkedin Guess The Category Queens By Linkedin Crown Each Region Crossclimb By Linkedin Unlock A Trivia Ladder Five daring fantasy thieves—a nimble Elf, a sneaky Goblin, a fleet-footed Satyr, a gruff Dwarf, and a hulking Troll—have just pulled off the heist of the century. They've broken into the King's heavily guarded vault and escaped with five glittering treasure chests filled with royal gold, enchanted relics, and priceless jewels. Now, under cover of night, the thieves arrive at a narrow rope bridge dangling over a mist-filled chasm deep in the Whispering Mountains. It's just past midnight, and the dense forest canopy blocks out the moonlight—making it pitch black. The bridge is their only escape. But time is running out. The King's elite guards are already in pursuit — and they will reach the bridge in exactly half an hour. Your mission, should you choose to accept it: Get all five chests and every member of the crew across the bridge in time, and cut the ropes before the guards arrive. The Rules of Escape: The thieves each move at different speeds (times indicate crossing one way): You must get all five thieves and all five treasure chests across the bridge before the 30-minute deadline, then cut the ropes to leave the King's men stranded on the other side. Will the thieves escape or will the King have his justice? The Answer: Yes, but only just barely. Here's the breakdown. Trip #1 11 minutes total — Troll and 1 chest are on the far side. Trip #2 6 minutes + 11 minutes = 17 minutes total — Troll, Dwarf and 2 chests are on the far side. Trip #3 5 minutes + 17 minutes = 22 minutes — Troll, Dwarf and Satyr plus 3 chests are on the far side. Trip #4 5 minutes + 22 minutes = 27 minutes — Troll, Dwarf and Goblin, plus 4 chests are on the far side. Trip #5 3 minutes + 27 minutes = 30 minutes — Troll, Dwarf, Goblin, Elf and Satyr plus 5 chests are now on the far side. The King's guards arrive just as the last chest is delivered and the Troll uses his axe to hack down the rope bridge. The thieves make off with their riches, but the King puts a hefty bounty on their heads. They'll be looking over their shoulders from here on out, and there may not be a chasm and wobbly bridge to save them next time . . . Now let's solve this Wordle! The Hint: Cut. The Clue: This Wordle has two vowels in a row and two consonants 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. My opening guess was GREAT—literally. Only five words remained, but everything I cam up with was some version of S?EAR. So I figured out a word that eliminated as many of the possible letters as possible and guessed SWAMP. That did the trick! Only SHEAR remained. Huzzah! Today's Wordle Bot At last, I have a win for April. I get 1 point for guessing in three and another for beating the Bot. The Bot gets 0 for guessing in four and -1 for losing to me, narrowing our totals to: Erik: -1 points Wordle Bot: 2 points The word "shear" comes from Old English scearan (past tense of scieran), meaning "to cut, cleave, or shear." It is related to the Proto-Germanic skeran, which also means "to cut," and ultimately derives from the Proto-Indo-European root sker- meaning "to cut or split."

I came up with this one, so I hope you enjoy it! A Bridge Puzzle of Strategy, Speed... and Stolen Gold FEATURED | Frase ByForbes™ Unscramble The Anagram To Reveal The Phrase Pinpoint By Linkedin Guess The Category Queens By Linkedin Crown Each Region Crossclimb By Linkedin Unlock A Trivia Ladder Five daring fantasy thieves—a nimble Elf, a sneaky Goblin, a fleet-footed Satyr, a gruff Dwarf, and a hulking Troll—have just pulled off the heist of the century.

You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here. Well curses! My opening guess—FEIGN—was not as clever as I hoped. A whopping 643 words remained. CRATE cut that down to just 3. Alas, at this point I picked CHORE and realized my mistake moments later. The three words left were CHORE, CURSE and CURVE and I really should have gone with one of the U words first. I was left with 2 options instead of just one (had I guessed CURVE) or the Wordle (had I guessed CURSE). Still, I lucked out and got this one in four. Today's Wordle Bot I get 0 points for guessing in four and -1 for losing to the Bot. The Bot continues its winning streak, snagging 2 points for guessing in two and 1 point for beating me, bringing our April totals to: Erik: -3 points Wordle Bot: 3 point The word "curse" comes from the Old English word curs, whose exact origin is uncertain. It may have roots in Latin cursus (meaning "course" or "run"), possibly referring to a set form of words spoken (i.e., a "cursed" formula or incantation), but this is speculative. It entered Middle English in the 12th century, used for invoking harm or misfortune supernaturally. Its deeper roots remain debated among scholars.
