New day, new Wordle, y'all.
While it's always the most fun to nail it down yourself, sometimes you just get stuck — and that's where we come in.
The answer to the July 10 Wordlecan be found at the end of this article or you can make your way down in a more leisurely fashion for a few tips, gentle hints, and strategies to help you every day.
Wordle's sudden explosion at the end of 2021 led to a round of press focused on its creator. Former Reddit engineer Josh Wardle actually came up with the game in 2021 as a private exercise for him and his word game-loving partner. It eventually became a staple of their family WhatsApp messaging, and that's when Wardle started to suspect he might have something special enough to merit a wider release.
Thousands of people around the globe now play this game each day, and fans have even created alternatives to Wordleinspired by the original format. This includes music identification game Heardle, Hollywood nerd faves Actorleand Framed, and variations like Dordleand Quordlethat make you guess multiple words at once.
Not the day you're after? You'll find the Wordleanswer for July 9 here.
Look to the future!Monday's answer and clues are up now.
We have some ideas to help you pick the perfect first move (or as close to perfect as you can get without just magically guessing the exact right word). Such tips include choosing a word with at least two different vowels in it, plus a few common consonants such as S, T, R, or N.
While you could once play the entire archive of past puzzles, the archive was taken down at the request of the New York Times, according to the site.
If you've been finding Wordletoo easy, there is a Hard Mode you can enable to give yourself more of a challenge. But unless you activate this mode, we can assure you that Wordle isn't getting harder.

However, occasionally the puzzle game will accept two different correct solutions on the same day, in apparent defiance of Wordlelaw.
This aberration is due to changes the New York Timesbegan making after it acquired Wordleearlier this year. To make sure you're always getting the same puzzle as everyone else, refresh your browser before you play — don't worry, the site will keep your streak.
It's a noun.
...the letter 'B.'
Ready?
We'll finally tell you the answer.
It's...
BERTH.
