The New York Times has released Wordle #1883 for Saturday, August 15, 2026, giving players another five-letter puzzle to solve. Today’s answer is a familiar word, though the repeated letter may slow some players down.
As always, players have six attempts to identify the hidden word. The colour clues after each guess help narrow down the possible letters and their positions.
For anyone trying to protect a Wordle streak, the clues below offer a way to get closer to the answer without revealing it immediately.
Here are the spoiler-free hints for Wordle #1883:
The word contains five letters.
It has two vowels.
One letter appears twice.
The word starts with the letter "L".
It contains two of the five most common Wordle letters.
The word can describe something that is not tight or firmly fixed.
These clues should help players narrow down the possibilities while keeping the solution hidden for a little longer.
A strong opening guess can make the puzzle easier. Words with common vowels and frequently used consonants can quickly reveal useful letters.
Players should also use each guess to eliminate letters rather than simply search for the answer. A second guess can test several new letters while keeping any confirmed positions in mind.
For today’s puzzle, paying attention to the repeated letter is especially useful. The double "O" is an important part of the answer.
Warning: The answer for today’s Wordle appears below.
