I admit I effed up 1686 gruesomely. I must've been so scatterbrained I didn't even want to post my failure. So bad was it. Back on track here though:

Mine was so much worse. Apart from giving up so I didn't even learn the solution, I placed the yellow letters the same places 3 times in a row. That's where I threw the towel in the ring.

I guess we can put to rest the question as to whether or not Wordle will ever reuse old solutions.
Today the answer became 'yes'.

Dunno why I like CHIVE so much. This isn't the first time I burn my fingers even though it's obvious that D is statistically more likely.

One of the few times I have found myself agreeing with AI

The word "chide" is considered uncommon to rare in modern English, often replaced by synonyms like "scold," "reprove," or "criticize". It is not considered archaic, but its usage has shown a declining trend, with a frequency of less than 1 per million words in recent years,.

I don't think I've ever used the word, and like you, without augmentation, it would have been my last choice.

AI also mentioned this; "Usage Context: It is frequently used in literary contexts, formal writing, or to describe a gentle, often parental or teacher-like, rebuke."
{bolding mine}

Definitely a hoity-toity word.

 

[sbrothy]

Well, put like that my choice does make some sense then, but as I said: it's not the first time I should have used it anyway.
