There are plenty of otheronline word gamesnow, but I still play the New York TimesWordlegame every day.

I’ve even rounded upwhat I learned playing the hit online word puzzle for a full year.

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.

What is Wordle?

If you read this far, you know how to play.

The New York Timesbought the game from creator Josh Wardlefor seven figures in 2022.

It was convenient, too, that he has a name that plays off “word.”

Spoiler: That 1,000th word was ERUPT.

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