Today’s Wordle answer
Spoiler warning: the answer appears below.
LURID
What “lurid” means
Lurid describes something shockingly vivid or excessive in appearance or detail. Example: “The novel’s lurid description made the scene impossible to forget.”
How the clues point to the answer
The clues narrow the field in stages: first to an adjective, then to a one-syllable word with two vowels, and finally to a word associated with vividness or excess. That progression fits lurid; it explains the published clues, rather than prescribing an official or proven solving method.
The answer is reported by WordFinder and Yahoo; TechRadar’s answer history also aligns the word with this date and puzzle number.
