Should have got it in two today for only the 4th time ever, but conspired to cock it up and did it in three.

Hmmm. Got it in 6, but surely it is an acronym, not a word.

Got it in 6 eventually. The answer occurred to me quite quickly but I was sure it wouldn't be a word.

Nearly gave up. I use hard mode so you can't sacrifice a turn to learn letters. I eventually tried it as a sacrifice turn, didn't think it would count as a word.

Stoopid non-word...even though I got it in 4. Did have my first ever hole-in-one the other day. My permanent starter word actually turned up 😂

Worse, it's an abbreviation. That said if email is a word what do I know

Plus it's a valid scramble word and is in the OED

Only in the same way that laser and scuba are acronyms. All have long since passed into common usage as a word.

Funnily enough I've never even looked at Wordle but this afternoon my sister in law and her daughter were really struggling with this one, when I said it sounds like the acronym that was the answer!

Still not something I'm going to bother about?

Today's word is not a good one. It's not as bad as snafu but not much better.

Spoiler
tbh I googled it after I got it on 6 and was surprised to discover it's not a brand name

I know snafu but with today’s it’s getting a bit silly.

Snafu is an acronym that is based on an offensive word and is not widely used. It's not an essential word.

Today's word is a word. It's not a high frequency word, but it's an English word for a specific thing. If you need to talk about that thing, you need to know that word. It's an essential word.

I considered today's word as my third line, but discounted it on the grounds that it was too specialist. I used it for my sixth, by which time I was resigned to losing my streak. I've actually got some in my garage.

It's an acronym that later became a word, and is relatively common in North America.

Today’s word is a word. It’s not a high frequency word, but it’s an English word for a specific thing. If you need to talk about that thing, you need to know that word. It’s an essential word.

Sure, but it's surprising it's in the Wordle dictionary, considering its obscurity.
