Quick tips for Wordle
#1: Check our list ranking the popularity of all the letters in the alphabet and choose your starter words accordingly. (TRAIN, STERN and AUDIO are good.)
#2: Don't forget that letters can be used more than once.
#3: Many words are similar. You don't want to use up multiple guesses that don't advance your cause. So if the puzzle is STA_E, don't guess STARE, STATE and STALE. Guess something that uses that R, T and L, like TWIRL.
