If you don’t get this Wordle puzzle right, you might be left doing the word itself — but hopefully not!
The first Wordle for 2022 might take you by surprise, and not necessarily the good kind. It represents an emotion that is associated with complaining about something or an unfortunate instance. Digging a bit into the etymological roots of Worlde #561 (January 1, 2023 edition), the word traces its origins back to the Proto-Germanic term «hwinison,» the Old High Germanic word «winison,» and the Old Norse onomatopoeia that is «hvina.»
If you are looking for rhyme-based hints, try some one-syllable words like fine, dine, shrine. The word in question starts with a consonsant, and has two non-repeating vowels, separated by the letter ‘n.
