It was a bad one. Today’s Wordle (No. 1818, June 11) didn’t want to be found. That repeated letter? A trap for most brains. If you’re staring at the grid wondering where to even start, stop guessing wildly. Look at frequency charts instead. Some letters just work harder.

Hints. Or, the gentle slide toward spoilers.
Go elsewhere if your pride is fragile. Otherwise, look below.
One letter shows up twice. That’s it.
There is only one vowel in the word. One “sometimes” vowel, too. Not two. Just one. The start? T. The end? Y.
It’s an emotion. Or a mood. Someone short-fused. Easily annoyed. The kind of person who sighs loudly when you ask them to move.
TESTY. That’s the answer.
Yesterday? No. That was ALIGN. Easy enough, probably. Before that?
June 6 was MORPH.
June 7 brought THUMB.
June 8 gave us MAFIA.
June 9 landed on WHARF.
Remember these. Maybe they’ll save you later. Probably not.
Start right or start wrong?
Stop using random words. Seriously. Look at the data. English favors E, A, and R. Ignore Z, J, Q in your first try unless you’re feeling brave and stupid.
Try these:
- ADIEU
- TRAIN
- CLOSE
- STARE
- NOISE
Pick one. Hit enter. Hope for green squares. 🟩🟩🟨
