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.
I guessed SPINE today because I just visited a spinal doctor and learned that I have something called Scheuermann's Disease, which isn't as bad as it's spelled but also isn't great. SPINE, however, was a pretty great opening guess. With 31 words left, I decided to try all new letters on guess #2. ABORT slashed the remaining number down to just two: PLATE or TAUPE. I almost went with PLATE, but decided to be bold and guess the less likely of the two. I'm glad I did. TAUPE was the Wordle! Huzzah for me!

Just like yesterday, the Bot and I each get 1 point for guessing in three and 0 for tying. This bumps our June totals to:
Erik: 13 points
Wordle Bot: 10 points
The word "taupe" comes from the French word taupe, meaning 'mole' (the animal). It originally referred to the grayish-brown color of a mole's fur. The French word itself derives from Latin talpa, also meaning 'mole.' The word was first used in English in the late 19th century, as a color name.
