Wordle Analysis
Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here.
BLEAK was a fitting opener, leaving me with just one yellow box and a whopping 567 remaining possible solutions. I went with a happier word for my second guess, but SHINE only slashed that number to 49. Thankfully, ROGUE did the trick. With just one possible word remaining, I guessed REVUE for the win!
Competitive Wordle Score
A total wash today. Zero points for guessing in 4 and zero for tying the Bot. Big fat zero.

Today’s Wordle Etymology
The word “revue” originates from the French revue, meaning “review” or “survey,” which itself derives from the Old French revoir (“to see again”), from Latin revidere (re- “again” + videre “to see”). In the 19th century, revue came to denote a theatrical performance made up of sketches, songs, and dances, often satirical or topical in nature. It entered English with this theatrical meaning in the late 19th to early 20th century.
