Each day, Wordle players face a simple yet challenging task, guessing a five-letter word in just six tries. While each guess offers clues based on letter placement, Wordle has a way of keeping even the most dedicated players on their toes. Many enjoy checking out a few hints to protect their hard-earned streaks, and that’s exactly what this guide offers for Wednesday, November 13.
Wordle #1243 is based on a theme of grooming, and the word refers to something related to appearance.
Here are some clues to get closer to the answer without wasting too many guesses:
Hint 1: The word suggests making oneself look neat or presentable.
Hint 2: This word starts and ends with the letter “P.”
Hint 3: There’s only one vowel in the word.
Hint 4: All four letters are unique.
Hint 5: Using “impro” as a starting guess will turn four letters yellow, giving one a strong head start.
For those still pondering, the answer for today’s game is waiting just below.
The answer for November 13 is ‘PRIMP’. Congratulations to anyone who guessed correctly!
The word primp means to carefully groom oneself or make small adjustments to clothing, hair, or accessories. It’s often used when one takes time to look their best before going out.
The word dates back to the early 19th century, originating as a blend of “prim” (meaning proper or neat) and “preen” (meaning to tidy up). Over time, primp evolved to describe this small act of getting ready, often with a touch of self-consciousness.
For players looking to improve, a Wordle Solver tool can be useful. Simply input the letters revealed through guesses, and the tool will suggest possible solutions. This is especially handy for maintaining streaks while adding a bit of strategy to daily guesses.
For players who prefer a social twist, WeWordle introduces a competitive multiplayer option. In WeWordle, players compete with opponents online. Players take turns on the same board to solve a shared hidden word.
The first player is chosen at random, and each turn allows 15 seconds to submit a five-letter word. The colour feedback works just like in classic Wordle. Green for correct placement, yellow for letters in the word but misplaced, and grey for incorrect letters. If a player fails to make a move in time, they forfeit the game, and the word is revealed. A ‘Give Up’ option allows players to surrender, ending the game and revealing the answer.
WeWordle can be played with random opponents globally or with friends via a shared link, offering a new way to add excitement to the daily Wordle challenge.
For more traditional competitive Wordle play, players can also compete to guess solo Wordles quickly. The scoring system here rewards faster guesses:
