NADIR

DEFINITION — ETYMOLOGY

Pun Play: Today’s solve was ORBIT difficult.

My Gameplay: HYMNS, PLATE, BRICK, NADIR

The Wordle journey began with HYMNS, a creative opener that immediately ruled out several common vowels while also probing the board with some less typical letters.  Only the “N” offered a hint of life, lighting up yellow and pointing the way forward.

Next came PLATE, a classic choice in the Wordle solver’s toolkit.  It spread coverage over popular letters, aiming to uncover where that tricky “N” might sit.  This guess nudged things along with the “A” and “T” showing up yellow, signaling that the puzzle’s foundation was starting to take shape.

The third attempt, BRICK, was bold and practical.  It tested new consonants while also cycling in a different structure.  The “R” was confirmed as part of the answer, though still unsettled in its position.  Piece by piece, the letters were tightening into place.

Then came the breakthrough with NADIR.  This guess nailed it.  The “N” locked perfectly into the front, and the “A,” “D,” “I,” and “R” fell right into formation.  In one satisfying strike, the puzzle was solved.

This Wordle solve highlights the strategy of steady letter elimination combined with tactical placement.  By moving from broad coverage to targeted precision, the answer revealed itself in just four moves—a clean and efficient win.  For players aiming to improve, this path shows the value of picking strong openers, testing clusters of letters, and being flexible enough to pivot based on feedback.

It was a fun Saturday challenge, solved with style and smarts.  Have a super Saturday.  On to tomorrow!
