        Your 3rd word would not work. No plurals.

        4 for me today. Got it down to two possible words on guess 3 and picked the wrong one.

          Is this a rule or is it just something that hasn't happened yet? I've been working off the assumption that a plural remains a so far unused possibility.

            I thought somebody said that the creator does not use plural words. So pretty much a rule. I could be wrong though.

              Two words this year have ended in S but aren't plural: TRUSS and REBUS.

                Daughter #1 was the source. I didn’t ask her how she knows. So far she’s been right.

                  Logically it makes a lot of sense. A 5-letter plural word is really a 4-letter word. For the same reason, I don't think you would want to include '-ed' words, conjugations, etc.

                    I wish I knew what the hell this was all about - so I could lie about my score too.

                          3 also. Back in the groove!

                          Spoiler for nothing special:

                          IRATE
                          FIGHT
                          LIGHT

                          It could have gone to 4 or 5 if I hadn't guessed that last word correctly.


                          Everybody in our wordle chat got it in 3 also. One daughter suggested we join SB's elite hard league. I think she's feeling her oats with that relatively easy word today.

                            For the first time, I got it in two guesses today. After my first guess, I could only think of two possible options for guess #2. I picked the more common one and got lucky.
