The Basics (For New Players)
Quordle gives you 12 attempts to crack four five-letter words at once. Each guess applies to all four grids simultaneously. A green tile means the right letter in the right spot, yellow means the right letter in the wrong position, and gray means that letter is not in that particular word.
This is the roomier daily format with fewer unusual words. The goal stays the same: solve all four quadrants before the guesses run out.

Word 2 (Top-Right): BLESS
Word 3 (Bottom-Left): SNIFF
Word 4 (Bottom-Right): LOBBY
Word DNA (Breaking Down Today's Answers)
STRAW: STRAW is a noun for the dried stalks of cereal plants after the grain is removed. In everyday use, it can mean farm material for bedding or the narrow tube used for drinking.
BLESS: BLESS is a verb meaning to invoke divine favor, consecrate, or express approval and good wishes. Its familiar everyday use appears in the courteous phrase said after someone sneezes.
SNIFF: SNIFF functions as a verb or noun for a short inhalation through the nose, especially to detect a smell. The phrase "sniff out" also describes discovering something through careful investigation.
LOBBY: LOBBY is a noun for an entrance or reception hall, and a verb meaning to seek influence over decision-makers. Context usually makes the architectural and political senses easy to distinguish.
The Difficulty Rating
This quartet rates 3 out of 5, approachable vocabulary with enough duplication to punish loose bookkeeping.
LOBBY is the hardest answer because its internal double B and final Y create competing possibilities. BLESS and SNIFF add similar pressure with doubled final consonants.
STRAW is the easiest answer, thanks to its concrete everyday meaning and five distinct letters. Its consonant-heavy shape is the only notable obstacle.
Strategic Insights
Begin with broad coverage of A, E, I, and O alongside distinct consonants, since every answer contains just one recorded vowel. That approach exposes the quartet's different vowel cores before duplicate testing becomes necessary.
Three answers contain a doubled consonant: BLESS ends with SS, SNIFF ends with FF, and LOBBY places BB internally, while STRAW repeats nothing. S also crosses STRAW, BLESS, and SNIFF, making it the quartet's strongest shared-letter signal.
