What is the Wordle answer 396? (July 20, 2022)
The Wordle answer 396 is now “TRITE.”
“TRITE” is an adjective that means “(of a remark or idea) lacking originality or freshness; dull on account of overuse.” (Definitions from Oxford Languages)
The main challenge of “TRITE” is that it has two “T” letters. The reason that duplicate letters are so challenging is because most players don’t consider guessing them until the latest stages of the game. The good news is that there are two vowels, “I” and “E,” which are likely to be locked in early, thanks to most players incorporating a generous number of vowels into their starting guesses.
Those finding it tough to track down the correct word may want to try knocking out as many incorrect letters as possible with each new guess. 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.
