About Today’s Word: “WATER”

Water is a vital liquid that composes around 60% of the human body and is fundamental for all known forms of life.

What Is NYT Wordle?

Wordle is a free, daily five-letter word game on NYT Games. You have six attempts to guess the word; color feedback (green/yellow/gray) guides your guesses.
