The answer to today’s Wordle, as well as a whole range of tips and other useful information on everyone’s favourite word game, are waiting just below. There’s even a freshly prepared clue for the July 27 (403) puzzle too.

I was stung today by the dreaded curse of almost-right. You’d think two greens popping up on the first guess would be a good thing, but today it only led to six variations of wrong. Even so, it was still interesting to see just how many words I could come up with from such a short prompt—and how distant they all were from the eventual answer.

Wordle today: A hint for Wednesday, July 27

Today’s word represents phrases that embody a particular belief or ideal. These can be anything from personal statements to corporate catchphrases, and certain universities may even have them written out in Latin. Two of today’s letters are used twice, so try to cast a wide net in those early guesses.

Wordle help: 3 tips for beating Wordle every day

If there’s one thing better than playing Wordle, it’s playing Wordle well, which is why I’m going to share a few quick tips to help set you on the path to success:

Today’s answer may be the plural form of a four-letter word.
A tactical second guess helps to narrow down the pool of letters quickly.
The solution may contain repeat letters.

There’s no time pressure beyond making sure it’s done by midnight. So there’s no reason to not treat the game like a casual newspaper crossword and come back to it later if you’re coming up blank.

About Wordle

Learn more about Wordle

Every day Wordle presents you with six rows of five boxes, and it’s up to you to work out which secret five-letter word is hiding inside them.

You’ll want to start with a strong word (opens in new tab) like ALERT—something containing multiple vowels, common consonants, and no repeat letters. Hit Enter and the boxes will show you which letters you’ve got right or wrong. If a box turns ⬛️, it means that letter isn’t in the secret word at all. 🟨 means the letter is in the word, but not in that position. 🟩 means you’ve got the right letter in the right spot.

You’ll want your second go to compliment the first, using another “good” word to cover any common letters you missed last time while also trying to avoid any letter you now know for a fact isn’t present in today’s answer.

After that it’s just a case of using what you’ve learned to narrow your guesses down to the right word. You have six tries in total and can only use real words (so no filling the boxes with EEEEE to see if there’s an E). Don’t forget letters can repeat too (ex: BOOKS).

Originally, Wordle was dreamed up by software engineer Josh Wardle (opens in new tab), as a surprise for his partner who loves word games. From there it spread to his family, and finally got released to the public. The word puzzle game has since inspired tons of games like Wordle (opens in new tab), refocusing the daily gimmick around music or math or geography. It wasn’t long before Wordle became so popular it was sold to the New York Times for seven figures (opens in new tab). Surely it’s only a matter of time before we all solely communicate in tricolor boxes.
