Today's Wordle hints
Reveal them in order and stop as soon as you've got it — each one gives a little more away:
| Hint | What it tells you | When to use it |
|---|---|---|
| Vowel count | How many vowels are in the word | First — it rescues most stalled guesses on its own. |
| Repeated letters | Whether any letter appears twice | When your known letters won't fit five slots. |
| First / next letter | One position at a time | After you've spent a guess or two. |
| Definition | The word's meaning | Last resort — the strongest clue, rarely needed. |
For #1881 (Thursday, August 13, 2026), the specifics are: 1 vowel (A), no repeated letters, starts with C and ends with H. Definition: A sudden collision, failure, or fall, or the act of hitting something with force.

How to use these hints without spoiling the puzzle
The point of a hint is to keep the puzzle yours. Take the smallest clue that gets you moving and go straight back to the board:
- Start with the vowel count. Knowing how many vowels are in play is often enough to unstick a guess without giving anything else away.
- Add one letter at a time. Reveal the first letter, take a guess, and only come back for the next letter if you're still stuck.
- Save the meaning for last. The definition is the strongest clue — most players never need to open it.
Because each hint stays hidden until you tap it, you're always in control of how much you see. Prefer to keep solving on your own? The Wordle solver turns the green, yellow, and grey letters you already have into a shortlist of words that still fit, and the past Wordle answers archive lists every word Wordle has used.
