After each guess, the game gives feedback to help you get closer to the answer:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Green<\/strong>: The letter is in the word and in the correct spot.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Yellow<\/strong>: The letter is in the word, but in the wrong spot.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gray<\/strong>: The letter is not in the word at all.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Use these clues to narrow down your guesses. Every day brings a new word, and everyone around the world is trying to solve the same puzzle. Some Wordlers also play Competitive Wordle against friends, family, the Wordle Bot or even against me, your humble narrator. See rules for Competitive Wordle toward the end of this post.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"embed-base rule-embed color-accent border-solid weight-light\"\/><\/section>\n<section id=\"todays-wordle-hints-answer\">\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\"><strong>Today\u2019s Wordle Hints And Answer<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Wordle Bot\u2019s Starting Word: <\/strong>SLATE<\/li>\n<li><strong>My Starting Word Today:<\/strong> BEACH (19 words left)<\/li>\n<li><strong>The Hint<\/strong>: Tasty<\/li>\n<li><strong>The Clue:<\/strong> This Wordle has a double letter.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Okay, <strong>spoilers below!
