Wordle hints (game #1,024) – clue #1 – Vowels

How many vowels does today’s Wordle have?

Wordle today has vowels in two places*.

* Note that by vowel we mean the five standard vowels (A, E, I, O, U), not Y (which is sometimes counted as a vowel too). 

Wordle hints (game #1,024) – clue #2 – first letter

What letter does today’s Wordle begin with?

The first letter in today’s Wordle answer is B.

B is a very, very common starting letter in Wordle. In fact, it’s the third most common overall, behind only S and C.

Wordle hints (game #1,024) – clue #3 – repeated letters

Does today’s Wordle have any repeated letters?

There are repeated letters in today’s Wordle.

Repeated letters are quite common in the game, with 748 of the 2,309 Wordle answers containing one. However, it’s still more likely that a Wordle doesn’t have one.

Wordle hints (game #1,024) – clue #4 – ending letter

What letter does today’s Wordle end with?

The last letter in today’s Wordle is D.

D is a fairly common letter to end a Wordle answer: it’s the eighth most likely to be in that position in a solution.

Today’s Wordle answer (game #1,024)

  • NYT average score: 4.3
  • My score: 4
  • WordleBot’s score: 3
  • Best start word performance*: TRADE (17 remaining answers)
  • My start word performance: SORRY (354)

* From WordleBot’s Top 20 start words


Today’s Wordle answer (game #1,024) is… BREED.

This is now officially a tough run in Wordle. Well, if you count my musings as official, which they most definitely are not. BREED has an average score of 4.3, following 4.2 and 4.5 on the previous couple of days, putting it on a par with SALLY, MAYOR and STUNG a couple of weeks ago in difficulty terms. I scored a 4/6, WordleBot scored a 4/6 and I doubt too many people scored higher than 4/6 here.

Not only does it have a repeated E, but it’s also one of those words with lots of similarly spelled alternatives. GREED, CREED and FREED all differ by only one letter, as do BREAD and BLEED. With two letters to find there are many, many more options, with some of the most commonly played today including GREEN, PREEN and TREND.

Only a couple of the top start words helped much, with TRADE (17 remaining answers), CRATE (25) and CRANE (30) the only to reduce the words list to a manageable number. In contrast, I started with SORRY – which led to a sorry state of affairs in terms of my still having 354 options.

I didn’t overthink my second guess, playing LATER because they were the most common letters still available to me, and I wanted to cover off the possibility of it being an ER word.

The first part of that format, the E, turned green – but the R stayed yellow, which made it likely that this was an -R-E- word. I did find a couple that started with an R instead, such as RIVEN and RIPEN, but most had the R second: CREEK, CREED,  BREED, GREED, PREEN, FREED, CREEP and GREEN. 

I didn’t find all 20 that WordleBot later said were still left at this stage, but I had enough to know what my third guess should be: GRIND. This would cover the possibility of RIVEN or RIPEN being the answer, and would make headway on the others. 

With the R and D turning green, I now had three answers left: BREED, FREED or CREED. I couldn’t recall any having been past Wordle answers, so I had a straight one-in-three shot at it. FREED seemed less likely than the other two, because it’s a past tense ED word, which generally aren’t included in Wordle. The C in CREED was slightly more likely than the B in BREED, but the latter is a more common word, so I went with that and got lucky.

Yesterday’s Wordle hints (game #1,023)

In a different time zone where it’s still Sunday? Don’t worry – I can give you some clues for Wordle #1,023, too.

  • Wordle yesterday had vowels in three places.

* Note that by vowel we mean the five standard vowels (A, E, I, O, U), not Y (which is sometimes counted as a vowel too). 

  • The first letter in yesterday’s Wordle answer was V.

V is a fairly uncommon starting letter in Wordle. There are only 43 answers that begin with a V, and it ranks just 16th.

  • There were no repeated letters in yesterday’s Wordle.

Repeated letters are quite common in the game, with 748 of the 2,309 Wordle answers containing one. However, it’s still more likely that a Wordle doesn’t have one.

  • The last letter in yesterday’s Wordle was A.

A is a relatively common ending letter. It ranks 10th in this regard and today’s game is one of 63 in which you’ll find an A there.

  • Yesterday’s Wordle answer is like so!

  • NYT average score: 4.2
  • My score: 4
  • WordleBot’s score: 3
  • Best start word performance*: SAINT (16 remaining answers)
  • My start word performance: LURID (88)

* From WordleBot’s Top 20 start words


Yesterday’s Wordle answer (game #1,023) was… VOILA.

Wordle’s rules remain mostly unwritten, and that can result in answers such as today’s, which may surprise – or possibly annoy – the unwary. 

For a start, VOILA might be considered by some to be a foreign-language word, and although there’s nothing official stating that only English words are included, I can see why some people might expect that to be the case. Whether VOILA is an English word or not is of course a different matter; go back far enough and many words have their origins in another language, so while VOILA was originally a French term, one could definitely argue that it’s now a part of the English language. 

The other factor here is that technically VOILA should have an accent on it (Voilà), something which obviously isn’t possible in Wordle. Both Merriam-Webster and Dictionary.com include the accent, at any rate.

We’ve been here before (as is usually the case with Wordle). Game #272 was SAUTE, which had exactly the same issues (or non-issues) as VOILA, and predictably people did get upset then. I suspect they will today too, although for what it’s worth I think VOILA is a perfectably acceptable Wordle answer, and a good one at that.

It is, however, a fairly tough one. WordleBot says it has an average score of 4.2, following the 4.5 for Saturday’s FINCH. Aside from its origins, the other difficult factors are the V at the start and the reasonably uncommon structure that has three vowels without any being an E.

As I show in my analysis of every Wordle answer, V is only the 22nd most common letter in the game, or to put it another way it’s the fifth most uncommon. It jumps to 16th when used at the start of an answer, but still only begins 43 out of Wordle’s 2,309 original solutions.

In terms of vowels, there are 226 games that contain three. A total of 173 of them include an E as one (or more than one) of the vowels, so while it’s not incredibly unusual to get this structure, it’s still not necessarily expected. Well, unless your start word is AUDIO of course, in which case you’re well used to playing lots of vowels without an E among them.

And if you did begin with AUDIO today, then you were sitting pretty here, with only four remaining answers. That makes this one of the rare games in which AUDIO outperformed all of WordleBot’s top 20 openers; the best among those was SAINT, which left 16. 

That doesn’t mean AUDIO is actually a good word to begin with every day of course, and it’s worth noting that in general WordleBot says you’ll have more success with VOILA than with AUDIO (and also with VOMIT, RHEUM, AURAS and MORON, among other unlikely openers). But today, it was a winner.

My start word was LURID, which is another that WordleBot rates far higher than AUDIO but which today was not so lucky: though it gave me two yellow letters, it left me with 88 possible solutions.

For the second guess, I placed my yellow L and I in their most common positions, then added the common-everywhere S and N. G was there to make up the numbers, to an extent, but also because it was included in the likes of SLING, BLING, GLINT and GAILY, all of which were on my long-list.

SLING cut down the options considerably, but didn’t go quite far enough – I still had 10 words left. I set about identifying them and came up with five of them: CHILI, CHILL, WHILE, EXILE and VOILA. I missed ICILY, which was a bit silly of me, plus the less-likely-to-be-an-answer CHILE, VOILE, AXIAL and TWILL.

With at least five on my list I decided I had too many to guess outright, so played EXCEL; yes, it was a bit of a waste to repeat the E, but it covered off all of my options. And it did the trick – by ruling out the E, X and C, I now had only one answer left. This was VOILA, and I played it next (minus the accent) for a satisfactory 4/6 score.

What is Wordle?

If you’re on this page then you almost certainly know what Wordle is already, and indeed have probably been playing it for a while. And even if you’ve not been playing it, you must surely have heard of it by now, because it’s the viral word game phenomenon that took the world by storm last year and is still going strong in 2024.

We’ve got a full guide to the game in our What is Wordle page, but if you just want a refresher then here are the basics.

What is Wordle?

Wordle challenges you to guess a new five-letter word each day. You get six guesses, with each one revealing a little more information. If one of the letters in your guess is in the answer and in the right place, it turns green. If it’s in the answer but in the wrong place, it turns yellow. And if it’s not in the answer at all it turns gray. Simple, eh? 

It’s played online via the Wordle website or the New York Times’ Crossword app (iOS / Android), and is entirely free. 

Crucially, the answer is the same for everyone each day, meaning that you’re competing against the rest of the world, rather than just against yourself or the game. The puzzle then resets each day at midnight in your local time, giving you a new challenge, and the chance to extend your streak.

What are the Wordle rules?

The rules of Wordle are pretty straightforward, but with a couple of curveballs thrown in for good measure.

1. Letters that are in the answer and in the right place turn green.

2. Letters that are in the answer but in the wrong place turn yellow. 

3. Letters that are not in the answer turn gray.

4. Answers are never plural.

5. Letters can appear more than once. So if your guess includes two of one letter, they may both turn yellow, both turn green, or one could be yellow and the other green.

6. Each guess must be a valid word in Wordle’s dictionary. You can’t guess ABCDE, for instance.

7. You do not have to include correct letters in subsequent guesses unless you play on Hard mode.

8. You have six guesses to solve the Wordle.

9. You must complete the daily Wordle before midnight in your timezone.

10. All answers are drawn from Wordle’s list of 2,309 solutions. However…

11. Wordle will accept a wider pool of words as guesses – some 10,000 of them. For instance, you can guess a plural such as WORDS. It definitely won’t be right (see point 4 above), but Wordle will accept it as a guess.
