I'll be spilling some hints, sharing my own solving experience, and of course, revealing today's solution. Spoiler alert: I found today's puzzle to be a bit of a breeze—I nailed it in four guesses! But before we get to that, let's make sure you're ready to tackle the challenge.

Warning: Spoilers Ahead for March 7, Wordle #1,357! If you want a peek at the answer, keep scrolling, but I recommend checking out my hints first!

How to Play Wordle

Wordle is hosted on the New York Times website, and a shiny new puzzle drops every day at midnight, your local time. The game is simple: guess a five-letter word, and based on your guesses, the letters will change colors:

  • Green means you've hit the jackpot with a correct letter in the right spot.
  • Yellow means the letter is in the word, just not where you thought.
  • Gray? Well, that letter is out for the count!

Need a deeper dive into strategies and tips? Check out our comprehensive guide to playing Wordle and my advanced strategy guide for some pro tips. Now, let's get to those hints for today!

Today's Hints

Is There Anything Unusual in Today's Word?

You're in luck! Most of the letters today are from the classic typesetters' phrase, ETAOIN SHRDLU—it's like a secret buddy system for letters! Only one letter today strays from this crew, but don't worry, it's still pretty common.

Can I Get a Hint?

Sure thing! Think military vibes. That should steer you in the right direction!

Are There Any Repeated Letters?

You bet! Today's word does have one repeated letter, so keep that in mind.

How Many Vowels Are in Today's Word?

Just one vowel today, but it makes a double appearance.

What Does Today's Word Start With?

It kicks off with the letter T.

What Does Today's Word End With?

And it wraps up with a P.

The Big Reveal: What's the Answer?

Alright, here it comes! Today's Wordle answer is TROOP.

My Solving Journey

So, here's how I cracked today's puzzle: I kicked things off with RAISE, then tried TOUCH, and finally hit BLOND. After those guesses, TROOP was practically screaming at me as the obvious choice.

Here's how my guesses stacked up:

  • Wordle 1,357: 4/6

🟨⬛⬛⬛⬛
🟩🟨⬛⬛⬛
⬛⬛🟩⬛⬛
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Yesterday's Answer Recap

In case you missed it, yesterday's puzzle was a bit of a cakewalk, too! The hint was "amber or silver, for example," and the answer? ALERT.

A Quick Wordle Basics Primer

If you're new to the game, here's a quick refresher: You're trying to guess the day's secret word, and when you first open Wordle, you'll see a blank grid. Type in any five-letter word, and watch the magic happen with those color codes!

After your first guess:

  • Green means you got it right!
  • Yellow means you're close, but not quite there.
  • Gray means you've got some letters to eliminate.

You've got six guesses in total, so use them wisely!

Best Starter Words for Wordle

Now, what's the best way to kick off your Wordle journey? Aim for words that feature those common letters to maximize your chances of snagging some yellow or green tiles. Here are some solid starter words:

  • CRANE
  • TRACE
  • SLANT
  • CRATE
  • CARTE

And if you want to go a bit more scientific, an MIT analysis suggests starting with:

  • SALET
  • REAST
  • TRACE
  • CRATE
  • SLATE

Feel free to mix it up with some vowel-heavy options like ADIEU or AUDIO, but I find a good consonant-heavy starter often yields better results.

How to Win at Wordle

If you're serious about mastering Wordle, we've got plenty of strategy guides to help you out. The key is to use your guesses to gather intel about the letters. For instance, if you figure out the word ends with -OUND, don't waste guesses on words like MOUND or SOUND; instead, try something like MARSH to narrow it down.

Just a little note: after being acquired by the NYT, the game has evolved to include a wider variety of words, sometimes with themes that might surprise you!
