Bot Wordle Analysis
After each Wordle I solve, I head on the Wordle Bot home page to see how my guessing game was.
Right off the bat, I came out swinging. I guess today’s Wordle isn’t too hard, but I was pretty lucky rung to make it even easier. My next guess, aorta, it was mostly an attempt to put the ‘A’ in two different places, eliminate another vowel, and see what happened. It wasn’t bad! Three guesses remained, though I could only think laggard and I remain.
we went laggard because A) it seemed more likely and B) it didn’t have a double letter, which meant I’d at least eliminate more in the process. Lucky for me, I got it right. Huzzah!
Today’s score
Like yesterday and the day before, I get 1 point for guessing three, but 0 for tying the Wordle Bot. 1 x 2 (for 2XP Friday) gets me 2 points. Bangarang!
Today’s Wordle etymology
The word “tardy” has its origins in Middle English. It can be traced back to the old French word ‘tardif’, meaning ‘slow’ or ‘delayed’. The Old French word, in turn, comes from the Latin word “tardus”, which also means “slow” or “late”. So “tardy” ultimately has its roots in Latin and has retained the meaning of delaying or delaying throughout its evolution into the English language.
