What is the Wordle answer 316? (May 1, 2022)
The Wordle answer 316 is “FORGO.”
Note: If NYT decides to skip this word, then the answer will instead be “STORY.”
“FORGO” is a verb that means “go without (something desirable)” or to “refrain from.” (Definitions from Oxford Languages)
The main challenge of “FORGO” is the duplicate vowel of “O.” With most players’ starting guesses including many vowels, but not duplicate vowels, the second “O” is unlikely to be detected until a later stage of the game. What’s more, the “F” and “G” are uncommon consonants, meaning that it might take a few guesses to find them. Combined, the challenge is significant, even for those familiar with the word.
Those finding it tough to find the correct answer may want to try using all of the available guesses to knock out as many letters as possible. So long as you aren’t playing on Hard Mode, which forces players to use confirmed guesses in all of the subsequent attempts, it’s best to use each new guess to eliminate as many potential letters as possible.
