‘Wordle’ #1,191 Hints, Clues and Answer for Sunday, September 22 Game

With the last day of the week comes the last Wordle game of the week and Newsweek is here to make sure it goes smoothly.

Here, you’ll find hints, tips and eventually the answer to today’s game—so scroll carefully if you want to try and do it on your own first.

The puzzle has become the most popular word game that The New York Times has to offer, after the newspaper bought it for a seven-figure sum in January 2022.

It was purchased from Brooklyn-based software engineer Josh Wardle, who created the game during lockdown and then released it to the masses in October 2021.

How to Play ‘Wordle’

If you’re new here, or you just want a recap, the point of the game is to guess the correct five-letter word. As you enter a letter into a block, its color will change.

Green means it is the right letter in the right place, gray means the letter is not included in the word at all and yellow means you have the right letter, but in the wrong place.

You have six guesses in total.

If you’re not sure where to start, an expert in applied linguistics, Erhan Aslan, who teaches at the University of Reading in the U.K., previously provided some useful advice for Wordle players in an interview with Newsweek.

“One thing that I think is important in this game is the starting word chosen,” Aslan said. “Starting off with words that include commonly used vowels, for example, e and a, consonants such as r and t, and sound sequences might be helpful.

“Choosing a word that starts with q, z, j or x, for instance, may not be the best choice. You get more feedback after a few guesses. Users need to draw on some knowledge of phonics to narrow down or eliminate some words that they might be thinking.”
