In simple terms, Wordle is a puzzle game where each player tries to guess a five-letter word within six attempts. After each guess, letters change color: green for a correct letter and position, yellow for a correct letter but wrong position, and gray for letters not in the word at all.
The trick is first to guess a complicated word with several vowels and consonants. This way, there is a greater chance that you get at least one letter correct, which then helps you with the others.
Pay close attention to the colors, and if your usual words aren’t working, try going through 2-3 words with totally different vowels. Also, don’t be shy about repeating words. The game has repeated words before, so it’s possible.
As mentioned, it’s a good strategy to start your guess with vowel-rich words. Here are some of the best ones you can start with:

Starts with a K, refers to a cutting tool or blade, and rhymes with Life.
