Waking up on a Monday morning with a fresh Wordle grid is the ultimate ritual, but today’s puzzle might leave you feeling a bit spun out. If you’re like me and started your day with a guess like SASSY, you probably realized quickly that the double 'S' was a bold move that didn't quite pay off. Today's word, for Monday, April 20, requires a bit more finesse and a focus on your vowels. It’s a common verb, but the letter placement can be tricky if you don't have a solid strategy.
What is the best starting word for today’s Wordle?
While my initial SASSY guess was a bit of a gamble, the data suggests that more traditional openers like SLATE or CRATE were much more effective for puzzle #1766. These words help you pin down the central vowel structure early. Today’s word features three vowels, so starting with a vowel-heavy word like ADIEU or AUDIO would have also given you a massive head start.
