The answer to today’s Wordle is …

DISCO

Disco is a genre of dance-oriented music that originated in the late 1960s and gained widespread popularity during the 1970s. It is characterized by its strong rhythmic and danceable beats, lush orchestration, and prominent use of electronic instruments such as synthesizers and drum machines. The term “disco” is derived from the French word “discothèque,” which refers to a nightclub or dance club where this type of music is typically played.

Disco music typically features four-on-the-floor beats (four beats per measure) and emphasizes repetitive and catchy hooks, making it highly suitable for dancing. The genre often incorporates elements of funk, soul, and R&B, and it is known for its lush, orchestral arrangements and use of strings, horns, and other instruments to create a vibrant and energetic sound.

During the height of the disco era in the late ’70s, disco became a global cultural phenomenon, influencing not only music but also fashion, dance styles, and club culture. However, by the early 1980s, disco’s popularity waned, and it faced a backlash, often referred to as “disco backlash.” Despite this, disco’s impact on popular music and dance culture has been significant, and it continues to influence various music genres and styles to this day.

Tips for tomorrow’s Wordle

It might seem like Wordle is all luck, but there are a few good practices you can use to help get as many clues as possible in just a few guesses, making it that much more likely you can figure out the final word before you run out of tries. The most important guess is your first, and the trick is to load up on vowels (A, E, I, O, and U).

Some popular starting words people have had good luck with are “adieu,” “media,” “arise,” and “radio.” Just make sure not to pick a word with double letters, or you’re wasting precious guesses. The aim here is to try to figure out which vowels the mystery word contains, then layer in common consonants and close in from there.

Your second word, assuming that the first one gave you a good jumping-off point, should begin to lean more heavily on common consonants like R, S, and T. More good ones here we’ve seen are “stern,” “irate,” and “atone.” You never want to reuse any letters from a prior round that showed up as gray — you know they aren’t in the word.
