HOW SCORING WORKS

The rules in detail

Each guess must be a real five-letter word from a list of about 4,500 English words (taken from the SCOWL word lists). Repeated letters are scored the classic way: if a letter appears once in the answer, only one of your copies is marked. The daily word is the same for everyone and changes at midnight UTC; answers are picked from about 690 common, family-friendly words, so it repeats only after many months. Your daily guesses and winning streak are kept on this device. Copy result shares the coloured squares without any letters.

Tips

  • Start with a word that uses common letters, like STARE, CRANE or SLATE.
  • Use your second guess to test five new letters instead of repeating yellow ones.
  • Remember letters can repeat: if you are stuck, try a double letter.
