If you just want a few clues to help you get the answer, keep reading for some background, tips and strategies we've reported on here at Mashable.
Missed the start of the phenomenon? Wordlewas originally created by former Reddit engineer Josh Wardle and went super-viral in late 2021, becoming a daily habit for thousands of players around the globe. The game was bought by the New York Timesearlier this year for a very big number of dollars, and is now run by the paper's puzzles and games team.
Some folks have wondered if Wordleis getting harder — it isn't. If anything, it's easier, as the Times has regularly been cutting more obscure words from the original list. But you can always switch Wordle to Hard Mode for an extra challenge.

This is due to changes the New York Timesmade after acquiring the game. As we've reported already, just last week a word was swapped out because it was unexpectedly topical. Make sure you refresh your browser before you play each day.
There are no double letters, and it's a verb.
The letter S!
