Wordle for August 12, 2024 - #1150
Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.
Let’s start with word recto
Attempt for recto gives us 0 correct letters, 0 present letters and 5 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter r is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter e is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter c is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter t is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter o is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Some letters are missing (like r, e, c, t, o) but it’s also important piece of information
So far we don’t know any of the letters!
Not a bad guess in general
Attempt 2
Right now we have 1021 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [nidal laund ulnad bland gland]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b d f g h i j k l m n p q s u v w x y z]
At position 2: [a b d f g h i j k l m n p q s u v w x y z]

At position 4: [a b d f g h i j k l m n p q s u v w x y z]
At position 5: [a b d f g h i j k l m n p q s u v w x y z]
Next guess is laund, let’s see what it gives us
