Quordle today (game #826) – the answers
The answers to today’s Quordle, game #826, are…
It might only be my personal kryptonite, but STAKE always troubles me. In fact, not just STAKE but also its close cousins STATE and STAVE. Yes, there are others in this group – notably STARE and STALE – but the way I play Quordle, they’re not a factor. The problem is that I begin with three start words, STARE, DOILY and PUNCH. They use 15 of the most common letters between them and rule out lots of answers – but not STATE, STAVE and STAKE.
Add the fact that I wasted a guess on PUREE (the answer was PURGE) and I nearly came unstuck today. Fortunately I had the presence of mind to play KNAVE on the eighth guess, which confirmed that STAKE was the answer, so I escaped with my streak intact, by a whisker.
