Today’s Wordle Answer

The December 18th Wordle answer is FUNNY.
To begin our Monday Wordle we used the starting word IRATE, which provided only incorrect letters. Since we often use the same starting word it was easy to jump into our second guess and cover the rest of the vowels with POUND. One correctly placed ‘N’ and the misplaced ‘U’ were shuffled to try our third guess SUNNY. This basically locked in the answer for us with four out of five correct letters.
For our fourth attempt we tried BUNNY, this was also incorrect but victory was clearly close at hand. We finally locked in a Wordle win-in-five with the correct answer, FUNNY. Another game down and another notch on the newly refreshed win streak.
