Pun Play: You NUMBER know if you’ll solve the Wordle in one!

My Gameplay: PEACE, THROW, TWICE

More interesting than blabbing on about the intricacies into my thought process while solving the puzzle is the etymology of our answer. TWICE is Old English for twies which is defined as “two times, on two occasions, in two instances.” After a long day of cleaning and visiting family, it took a few moments to process the definition. There was something peculiar about it yet I couldn’t place my finger on it. And then it dawned on me after a few more attempts. Why is the definition for TWICE explained in thrice?? Two question marks seems quite fitting. On to tomorrow!
