Now that Wordle has been acquired by the New York Times, several previously guessable words have been removed from the game’s dictionary.
As reported by Polygon, Wordle users will no longer be able to try words such as “whore”, “bitch” and “sluts”. From now on, if players do try and enter any of these words, they will be greeted with the “not in word list” message.
