For folks who have managed to read this far and still haven't solved it, here’s Wordle #1237, November 7, 2024 answer:
EVENT
An ‘EVENT’ is an organised thing, something significant, usually like a meeting or concert, or special occasion. Today's word was tricky, especially with the repeated "E", which even experienced players might have been ruffled by.
The following tips will help in continuing the winning streak:
1. For a strong start, try words containing commonly occurring letters such as "E", "A", and "T". A great starter word provides an exciting base. It helps quickly eliminate or confirm the common usage of letters.
2. Many people do not recognize repeated letters and assume that the entire answer to Wordle contains a unique set of letters. Words like "LEVEL," "CHEER," and "EVENT" include repeats, pay attention to this while guessing.
3. The New York Times provides an AI tool called Wordlebot, which will review guesses and give recommendations on improvements that can be made. This is really helpful for players trying to optimise a winning strategy. The WordleBot provides two options as shown in the image below that players can access to increase their chances of winning:
Josh Wardle, a software engineer, developed Wordle as a game for his partner to play during the pandemic. Its simplicity and ability to share results was so successful that the game went viral within a day.
In 2022, the New York Times purchased Wordle for a seven-figure sum and added it to its roster of word games like Connections and Strands. It has gained popularity since then for its global daily language puzzles among word enthusiasts and casual players.
A player can guess nearly any five-letter English word and the game will agree to entertain their entry. However, most often the daily answer comes from a much smaller pool of commonly occurring words. After all, there are tens of thousands of five-letter words, but Wordle tries to stay away from too obscure choices, like "THIOL," "CAIRD," or "MALIC" (yes, those are real!).
Sometimes, the words selected by Wordle will not appear in the New York Times due to some recent news events or because of being related to sensitive information. For example, On March 30, 2024, following a leaked news concerning the overturning of the Roe v. Wade case, there was a shift in the word of Wordle from "FETUS" to "SHINE" for political sensitivities.
Words selected by the Times cannot be a word that is potentially deemed offensive or inappropriate. However, feel free to use any of the words for guess-of-the-day. Just keep in mind that some words are strictly off-limits given the game’s history of providing family-friendly entertainment.
