Wordle, the new daily word game

Thanks to my reading of some UK newspapers online, the new daily word game called Wordle has come to my intention. A German student of mine also told me about it.

Before I forget, there is the link to play it in English: https://www.powerlanguage.co.uk/wordle/

and in German: https://wordle.at/.

Basically, you have to guess a five-letter word. I always use 'earth' to start in English and (thanks to an online tip) 'adieu' to start in German.

If you get a correct letter in the correct position, the letter is shown on a green background. If it's a correct letter but in the wrong place, it's on a yellow background. Today, I got both words in four guesses. Once, I guessed the correct English word in two guesses. So far, I've not lost a game. (Having said that, I shall probably lose both games tomorrow.)

Beware, however, that you can have two letters the same in one word and the game uses American spelling, so something like 'color' is possible.

Have fun!
