Today’s Solution: November 16, 2025 Wordle answer is WIELD; hints guide players from vague to specific.
Sundays are for drinking coffee, resting, and stimulating your brain with a little wordplay! NYT Wordle is the ideal weekend ritual, with its demand for vocabulary and the fun ‘aha’ feeling we all get with every guess!
Regardless of how many times you have played or if it's your first time, today's puzzle will give you a fun and entertaining way to challenge your brain and spend your Sunday with a smile!
Fun fact: Wordle was created by software engineer Josh Wardle in 2021 as a simple, daily word game for his partner. It quickly went viral, eventually being acquired by The New York Times in 2022.
Wordle is a popular online word puzzle that you can play daily, in which you attempt to guess a five-letter word in six guesses or fewer. It's easy to understand and addictive, perfect for that morning cup of coffee.
First Guess
Type any five-letter word that is a valid English word (like SLATE), then hit Enter.
Color Feedback
After each guess, letters will change colors:
Green: You have the correct letter in the correct location.
Yellow: You have the correct letter in the incorrect location.
Gray: The letter is not in the word at all.
Now with mistakes in grays ruled out from the next guess, greens will be treated as priorities, and yellows will be tried in other locations depending on their color.
Suppose you can find the word within six guesses. Congratulations! You have won for the day. Everyone gets the same puzzle each day.
CLUNG.
