Today's Quordle dropped and this Wednesday challenge presents a mix of emotional states, physical actions, and anatomical terms.
With nine guesses to solve all four simultaneously, we've got the hints to guide you to a clean sweep.
The Basics (For New Players)
Quordle gives you nine attempts to solve four five-letter words simultaneously. Each guess applies to all four grids. Color feedback works like Wordle: green for correct letter in correct position, yellow for correct letter in wrong position, gray for letter not in that word.
Created as a Wordle variant and now hosted by Merriam-Webster, Quordle tests your ability to manage multiple word puzzles at once.
