How Wordle works

Wordle is a vocabulary game in which players get six tries to guess a five-letter word. Once you enter a guess, individual letters within the word you entered will appear in different colors. Each color has a different meaning.

• Green: The letter entered is 100% correct — the right letter in the right space.
• Yellow: The entered letter is in the correct word, but you’ve placed it in the wrong space.
• Gray: The entered letter is not used in the answer.

The goal is to guess the correct word in as few attempts as possible.
