I forget true word approximately 10 minutes after working it out so it’s not going to be a problem for me

 

 

Yep, me too. My retention time is more like 2 minutes though.

What I want to know is: what are we all going to do when Wordle runs out of words? There's only 1219, (three and a bit years worth), left FFS!

 

 

Think you got the decimal point wrong.

12 thousand 5 letter words in English.

4 thousand in the Merriam-Webster dictionary.

If that makes sense.

Oh. That's a bit weird then. This is what Mr Google said.

 

how many wordle words are there - Recherche Google

WWW.GOOGLE.COM

 

 

I know that American English is a dumbed down version of the original, but surely it doesn't have 90% less 5 letter words.

Ah yes,  I take your point.

Could of been a 3 I'd like to think, but I rushed it annoyingly.

There's something about a working day where I'm up early and have to get on with stuff that seems to suit me, the speed wordler approach. Being relaxed and having more time in hand just doesn't do me any good.

Chance of a three, but would have been lucky.

Not unhappy.
