Wordle for May 1, 2025 - #1412
Attempt 1
This is the first attempt and we’ll choose a random word to start with.
Let’s start with word recut
Attempt for recut gives us 1 correct letters, 1 present letters and 3 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 on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 2
Letter c is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter u is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter t should be at position 5
We got information about the correct letters and it should make next attempt easier
Some letters are missing (like r, c, u) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [e t]
That was a great guess that limited number of remaining words
Attempt 2
Right now we have 64 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [olent inlet blent glent palet]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b d e f g h i j k l m n o p q s t v w x y z]
At position 2: [a b d f g h i j k l m n o p q s t v w x y z]
At position 3: [a b d e f g h i j k l m n o p q s t v w x y z]
At position 4: [a b d e f g h i j k l m n o p q s t v w x y z]
At position 5: [t]
Next guess is inlet, let’s see what it gives us
Attempt for inlet gives us 1 correct letters, 1 present letters and 3 wrong letters.
If we look into details, we can see that:
Letter i is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter n is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter l is not present in the word and we will not use it any more
Letter e is on a different spot - this means that it cannot be at position 4
Some letters are missing (like i, n, l) but it’s also important piece of information
Word should contain letters [e t]
Not a bad guess in general
Attempt 3
Right now we have 12 words to choose from and best of them seem to be [adept doest wheft whewt awest]
So far we know that possible letters are:
At position 1: [a b d e f g h j k m o p q s t v w x y z]
At position 2: [a b d f g h j k m o p q s t v w x y z]
