How to solve today's Wordle. Looking for Monday’s Wordle hints, clues and answer? You can find them here: It was April Fool’s Day, I believe two years ago now, that I got my first Wordle-in-one. I actually guessed the world APRIL to start, but that came back as an unacceptable guess.
I thought, well, what other months have five letters? Wouldn’t it be kind of funny if they chose MARCH for April Fool’s Day? Sure enough, the Wordle was MARCH. I chock that one up to cleverness rather than luck. In any case, it’s April 1st, which means you really can’t believe anything you read on the internet.
In a world filled with so many ridiculous, crazy news stories, it’s almost overkill to have a day dedicated to pranks and false headlines. Let’s just solve this Wordle instead. The Hint: A precious possession.

Yikes. This did not go very well. I thought SPINE would be a good opening guess but it left me with 476 remaining possible solutions.
BLOAT cut back the bloat a bit, but I still had 22 left. I slashed that down to 3 with CRUEL but then I guessed WHEEL. Bad luck there.

Enjoy! The word "jewel" comes from the Old French word "jouel" (12th century), meaning ornament or precious stone . That, in turn, likely comes from Medieval Latin "jocale", meaning plaything or toy , which derives from the Latin "jocus", meaning joke or jest .
