How to solve today’s Wordle.
Looking for Monday’s Wordle hints, clues and answer? You can find them here:
It’s Tuesday, and that means . . . very little, I suppose. Nothing really happens on Tuesdays. We don’t get holidays on Tuesdays. The only thing I can think of is the election, and for some bizarre reason that isn’t a holiday in America. It certainly should be!
We’re still a few weeks out from election day, however. Don’t forget to vote! In the meantime, we have a Wordle to solve.
How To Solve Today’s Wordle
The Hint: Fruit tool.

Today’s Wordle
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 was off to a pretty great start today, but even slashing 2,000+ down to just 11 didn’t really help enough. I should have gone with all new letters, but I figured I might possibly guess it in two, so why not? CORAL didn’t help quite as much as COURT, and CORNY was even worse. I could only think of CORER at this point, and somehow that ended up being right. Lucky me!
Competitive Wordle Score
Just like yesterday, a total wash today. I get 0 points for guessing in four and since the Wordle Bot also guessed in four, I get 0 for the tie. Big fat zeroes all around!
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 corer comes from the root word core, which itself traces back to the Middle English coren, meaning “heart” or “central part.” This likely derives from Old French coeur, meaning “heart,” and ultimately from the Latin cor or cordis, meaning “heart.” The suffix -er in corer denotes a person or thing that performs a specific action, so a corer is something that removes the core of an object, like a fruit.
