I did all that and, yep, I missed it, so with my mind still blank I typed every single option in (even XEARZ etc). Twice. Every one was red. Quordle lied. Quordle hates me.forestfan wrote:Yeah, you do sometimes miss an obvious one by reading it in the same way as alternatives.

It’s not in my dictionary app (Merriam-Webster) but did find it on Google so reluctantly tried it.

I had FETUS, others have SHINE. I’m sure the Roe v Wade controversy in America is why FETUS was withdrawn (unless it is the new one and they wanted to make a political statement!).

It strikes me as a little ironic that the NYT removed FETUS, after it had been conceived several months ago.

Fair play to them. All US spellings should be aborted.
(I presume it is a US thing? I would spell it FOETUS)

Too many names of late, Homer screwed me in wordle the other day (I'll never watch The Simpsons again in protest) and today we get Ralph and Amity (only a partial name of a fictional town in a horror film???.).
I also hate it when the only 'valid' words that I can find are names and I can't then get them out of my head. Has happened with PUTIN twice!

Yeah, I saw PUTIN once, guess the actual word was INPUT…
Not familiar with RALPH as a dictionary word, but had the A in green and all others yellow and it was all I could see! None of them were easy words today.

I had the R (green) and A (yellow Middle) and H (yellow 4th). Had tried ROATE, CUSHY, COMET and COVET. Never heard of RAPLH, but spent so long trying to find a word I stuck it in and was surprised it stayed black. Still took maybe 15 more minutes looking for a "real" word.

Re: WITH SPOILERS - Wordle And Quordle WITH SPOILERS
Ralph was annoying as a word. Amity something I know the meaning of but didn’t really think it’d be a W/Quordle type choice. I wonder if some of the more obvious quartets are running out?

Thought it was BONY without the E, unless there was also an M
Puzzled me as I saw MONEY as the only option, lucky I’d used the H so didn’t waste a guess on HONEY as well.

Quordle: BONEY occurred to me first. Similar doubts about legitimacy which is why I went for MONEY first

Would've got 6 instead of 7 in Quordle but opted for an unlikely fizzy instead of a more considered and sensible fishy.

I have found all 4 words, but word numer 3 is not accepted, I tried all possible answers with all 5 letters.
Very strange....
I have an A in the middle and MPSC
8 3
9 6
it worked after a few refreshes

Didn't notice I had two yellow E's on eager and proceded to make three consonant guesses on what seemed a 50/50 hence no elimination guess.(quordle)
