The letters "E" and "A" appear in multiple positions across today's Quordle, creating an elimination pattern that 91% of players miss. Our trimming technique shows how removing "ES" and "C" from "ESCAPE" instantly reveals "AGAPE" without random guessing.
Quordle takes word puzzles to another level, offering a quadruple challenge of finding four five-letter words in nine attempts. All made easier by a color feedback system: green confirms correct letters in correct positions, yellow shows right letters in wrong positions, while gray indicates absent letters.
David Mah's curiosity about expanding word puzzles led to Quordle's creation, with Freddie Meyer developing the playable prototype. Merriam-Webster later acquired the game, adding linguistic authority to this challenging daily puzzle.

These simple tips can help you predict words using a diverse range of strategies.
Letter Hints are the prime hints. They provide precise information on where to start and where to end. Our strategic hints will provide the best start to any day's word game.
Word 1 starts with “S”, middles at “E”, and ends at “T”
Word 2 starts with “A”, middles at “G”, and ends at “E”
Word 3 starts with “P”, middles at “L”, and ends at “R”
Word 4 starts with “Y”, middles at “A”, and ends at “N”
Predicting words with vowels is the best hint in Quordle. They frequently appear in English words in a common pattern, such as CVC, consonant-vowel-consonant. For example, try "ROYAL" and "BUNCH" from the previous day's Quordle game. Select "Past Games" from the "Daily Classic" drop-down menu, then select the 12 May 2025 game.
Word 1 has one vowel and four consonants ( Pattern: CCVCC )
Word 2 has three vowel and two consonants ( Pattern: VCVCV )
Word 3 has two vowels and three consonants ( Pattern: CVCVC )
Word 4 has two vowels and three consonants ( Pattern: CVVCC )
Repeating letters is best suited for an elimination strategy. Half of the word can be guessed with little difficulty when a letter appears twice. Practice the hints from the 11 May 2025 game:
The letter “U” helps with guessing the first, second and third words.
The letter “A” helps with guessing the first and third words.
The letter “H” helps with guessing the first and second words.
Today’s Elimination Strategy
The first, second, and fourth words have "E"
The second, third, and fourth words have “A”
The first and fourth words have “N”

The third and fourth words have “R”
SIMILAR SOUNDING WORD STRATEGY
Phonetic hints serve as a secret weapon in Quordle, triggering that "aha!" moment when players are stuck. By focusing on similar sounds rather than meanings, they guide toward solutions by enhancing the game experience.
WORD 1: CENT (but add S at the start)
WORD 2: ESCAPE (but remove the ES and C)
WORD 3: SOLAR (but with P instead of S)
WORD 4: LEARN (but with Y instead of L)
Solutions are up front. But before that, try to guess a similar-sounding word taken from the hint of the game played on 9 May 2025 - PLAIN (but with S instead of P)!
For those who just want the answers:
SCENT
