Wordle Analysis
Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here.
I’m a little sad this one took me four, but oh well. I started off with a guess that did far worse than I expected. SPARE left me with 355 remaining words and 5 grey boxes. SCOUT only cut that to 22 and I was left with just a measly, yellow ‘T’.
From here, THINK actually did some good. I soon realized that only one word—at least that I could come up with—would work: THIGH for the win!
Competitive Wordle Score
I lose a point because the Wordle Bot got super, super lucky and guessed in three and I get 0 for guessing in four. Lame!
How To Play Competitive Wordle
- Guessing in 1 is worth 3 points; guessing in 2 is worth 2 points; guessing in 3 is worth 1 point; guessing in 4 is worth 0 points; guessing in 5 is -1 points; guessing in 6 is -2 points and missing the Wordle is -3 points.
- If you beat your opponent you get 1 point. If you tie, you get 0 points. And if you lose to your opponent, you get -1 point. Add it up to get your score. Keep a daily running score or just play for a new score each day.
- Fridays are 2XP, meaning you double your points—positive or negative.
- You can keep a running tally or just play day-by-day. Enjoy!
Today’s Wordle Etymology
The word "thigh" has its origins in Old English. It is derived from the Old English word "þēoh," which means "thigh" or "leg." This, in turn, comes from Proto-Germanic "*theuhą," which also means "thigh." The Proto-Germanic term is related to similar words in other Germanic languages, such as Old High German "dioh" and Old Norse "þjó."
The Indo-European root of the word "thigh" is believed to be "*teuk-," which means "to swell," referring to the fleshy part of the upper leg. This etymology reflects the anatomical characteristic of the thigh being a thick, fleshy part of the leg.
