Still need a starter word?

I tend to stick to starter words that have the most popular letters used in English words.

I like TRAIN as a starter, though I have a friend who uses TRAIL.

I’ve read that peopleuse the financial term ROATE, but I like to use words I actually know.

Spoiler: That 1,000th word was ERUPT.

As in, “Dad will erupt if the Wordle is so tough he loses his streak.”
