Wordle 453 ****Spoiler Thread***

Wordle 453 2/6

🟩⬜⬜⬜⬜dream
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩doubt

An existential two! Recently, I've been using starter words that reflect things going on in my life or the world. I've been having a lot of dreams and thinking about dreams. Similarly, doubt has been a force in those thoughts.

This morning Wordle really gave me a chuckle.

I was going to start with BRACE, I got distracted and couldn't remember, so I used BADGE. Then I thought I'd check O and U. What word has B, D, O and U?

I think I've only got it in two, three or four times.

had a blank before the T, and knew it wasn't S or N, and realized it could be B, in which case it could only be doubt.

I'm learning to think what can possibly be before a letter, like NT go together and SH and so on.
I learn slowly, if at all.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 DOUBT

WordleBot: "Although HUMID left only one possible solution, some of this was luck: If the solution had been DIVOT, there still would have been two words to choose from. But you’ve narrowed it down to one possible solution. You should solve the puzzle on your next turn."

NOT luck; I deliberately tried to find a word using NONE of the letters already used, in order to narrow it down as much as possible. The 'T' in DIVOT had already been used. Mission accomplished. Getting out with a '4' is not great, but it could have been worse!
