Today's Classic Quordle lands with puzzle #1732, and the set feels practical and familiar, with a few spelling snags beneath the surface. Welcome back, and use the hints to ease into today's board.
The Basics (For New Players)
Quordle gives you 9 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 original daily format. The goal stays the same: solve all four quadrants before the guesses run out.

Word 1 (Top-Left): DECAL
Word 2 (Top-Right): WIDTH
Word 3 (Bottom-Left): WOKEN
Word 4 (Bottom-Right): LEVER
Word DNA (Breaking Down Today's Answers)
DECAL: DECAL is a noun for a design transferred onto another surface. You can use it for a decorative graphic applied to a car window or a model kit.
WIDTH: WIDTH is a noun meaning the measurement from side to side. In furniture measurements, it helps distinguish how broad an item is from how tall or deep it is.
WOKEN: WOKEN is the past participle of wake, meaning to have stopped sleeping or caused someone to stop sleeping. It follows an auxiliary verb in everyday phrases such as 'has woken up' and 'was woken by the alarm.'
LEVER: LEVER is a noun for a rigid bar that pivots on a support to move a load. In everyday instructions, the word also names a handle you push or pull to operate a mechanism.
The Difficulty Rating
I'd rate this quartet 3 out of 5, with WIDTH the hardest answer and DECAL the easiest. WIDTH's tightly packed DTH ending is harder to assemble, while DECAL offers a straightforward spelling once the decorative meaning clicks.
LEVER adds a duplicate E that can punish an insistence on fresh letters, and WOKEN requires you to consider an irregular verb form. Those are the main traps in an otherwise familiar vocabulary set.
Strategic Insights
Use early guesses to cover A, E, I, and O alongside D, L, and W, which give useful coverage across this quartet. Once a board narrows, test the distinctive K in WOKEN or V in LEVER when the clues support them.
E appears in DECAL, WOKEN, and LEVER, with LEVER using it twice. WIDTH and WOKEN share W, while DECAL and WIDTH share D, so carry those discoveries across the boards without assuming they occupy the same place.
