How to play Wordle

Everry day, there a new Wordle word challenge is rolled out. You will get six chances to guess the right word consisting of five letters. Every time you guess a correct alphabet in its right position in the word you will get a green coloured hint. In case you guess a correct letter but the positioning of the same is wrong then it will be highlighted with the yellow colour. And any alphabets that are not in the word will be indicated to you in black/grey colour highlights. Once you guess a word you will have to hit the enter button to submit. It needs to be noted that after each guess, the colour of the tiles will change to show how close your guess was.

Here are a few tips for you to crack the Wordle:

• Your first word should contain popular letters such as TEARS or a word containing most of the vowels, like AUDIO.
• Don't be afraid to use the same letter twice! There is a chance that the word has repetition.
• You can try the NYT Spelling Bee too.
