Today’s Wordle puzzle is number 1461, for June 19, 2025. Are you ready for a fresh challenge? Let’s see if we can crack this one together!
Hints Section: Feeling stuck? Don’t worry, here are a few clues to get you thinking:
- The word contains two vowels.
- There are no repeated letters in this word.
- It’s a noun that describes something interesting or unusual.
- Think about items you might find in a cabinet of curiosities.
Alright, let’s narrow it down further. The word begins with a consonant that’s fairly common, but not as common as ‘T’ or ‘S’. It ends with a common vowel. The second letter is a consonant as well, and it’s found somewhat in the middle of the alphabet. Still pondering? Okay, here’s one more hint: think about a small, unusual object.
Answer Revelation: Drumroll, please! The Wordle answer for June 19, 2025, puzzle number 1461 is…
C _ R I _
C U R I O
Analysis and Strategy: CURIO is a relatively common word, but its unusual spelling might have thrown some players off. The ‘U’ in the second position isn’t the most frequent vowel placement, which could have made it a bit trickier than usual. Words ending in ‘O’ also aren’t the absolute most frequent, so it’s understandable if the answer wasn’t immediately apparent.
WordleBot would probably rate this puzzle as being of medium difficulty. The presence of ‘R’ and ‘I’ are helpful, but the somewhat less common letters ‘C’ and ‘U’ make it less straightforward than some other solutions.
Vowel Frequency: Remember, vowels are key! ‘E’ is the most common, but ‘A’, ‘O’, ‘I’, and ‘U’ shouldn’t be neglected. Starting words with multiple vowels can be beneficial.
Letter Positioning: Vowels frequently appear in the second and third positions. Keep this in mind when making your guesses. While this puzzle had a vowel in the second position, many others do not.
Starting Words: Words like ‘STARE’ or ‘CRANE’ remain solid choices for starting words. They incorporate common vowels and consonants, providing a good foundation for uncovering the day’s word. Another strategy is to try words that cover as many unique, common letters as possible in the first two guesses. Ultimately, understanding common word structures and letter frequencies can significantly improve your Wordle game!
