Wordle 439 – Hints and Answer for September 1, 2022

You have up to six attempts to guess the correct word in Wordle. After making each guess, the squares change to one of three different colors. If a square turns grey, that letter does not appear in the final solution. Similarly, if a box turns yellow, the letter is in the answer but is currently in the wrong spot. Lastly, if a box is green, you have the correct letter in that space. This color-coding system also works if you use the same letter more than once.

Before diving into today’s Wordle answer, here are three hints to help you figure out the final word:
