No, way simpler these are actual Wordle copy and pastes, helps to know the answer ahead of time though

I've never studied Spanish, but I have studied other languages. Is Spanish a language in which a word can have lots of different endings depending on the grammatical context? In English, the only variations are to add an "s" to most nouns, or to add "s", "ed" or "ing" to most verbs. (With a small number of exceptions to the rule.)Orodruin said:Why Wordle in Spanish is annoying:

Or "y" (fish - fishy, mess - messy) and "ly" (adjective > adverb) to change the grammatical context.DrGreg said:I've never studied Spanish, but I have studied other languages.

All verbs are conjugated based on person and tempus. The main problem here however is that there the structure of Spanish spelling generally means a five letter word will have two or three vowels. Here I hit all the vowels with the first guess and the combination is such that many many consonant combinations will fit. I should probably guess three consonant combinations rather than trying to fill in the two consonants considering that, but it will still be rather annoying. You cannot start guessing four-consonant words to cover the consonants like you can do in English many times.DrGreg said:I've never studied Spanish, but I have studied other languages.

You're right, I hadn't thought of changing a noun to an adjectve or an adjective to an adverb, I was thinking only of declension and conjugation.fresh_42 said:Or "y" (fish - fishy, mess - messy) and "ly" (adjective > adverb) to change the grammatical context.
Russian has eight or nine cases, Latin had six IIRC, Hungary concatenate words, some languages (forgotten which) conjugate by prefixes, etc. There are really many different versions of declination and conjugation. German has four declination cases which are mainly built by endings, plus three genders, also determined by the ending, and the tempi are more or less built as in English with two major cases of past perfect (weakly, resp. strongly declined). It is a mess when you look at it. No wonder English which lacks all of these became lingua franca.DrGreg said:You're right, I hadn't thought of changing a noun to an adjectve or an adjective to an adverb, I was thinking only of declension and conjugation.
Does the game allow you to use the same word twice or you actually had to come up with six distinct ones?BWV said:Struggled with this one

Yes, I thought I had a 3/6 and wondered why I was not able to share
I was very happy about it. I am too much of a physicist I guess.
