What is today’s Wordle answer on Feb 7?
It’s time to reveal the answer to today’s Wordle. The word is…
APPLE.
“APPLE” is a difficult word, with the double “P” throwing us off for a while. We also found it hard to get the vowels in the right place, so hopefully the above hints made it a little easier for you.
What does the Wordle answer today mean?
An “APPLE” is a round, crunchy fruit. Red apples are typically sweeter, while green apples tend to be more sour. My favourite kind of apple is the Pink Lady, but they’re far too expensive. Sometimes I get them as a treat, which proves just how uncool I am.
If you don’t want someone to pelt an apple at your head, then don’t spoil the Wordle answer today. Keep it a secret until tomorrow, when a new Wordle puzzle will appear.
How to share your Wordle results without spoilers
Use the built-in Wordle sharing feature to share your results without spoiling the answer!
Wordle has a built-in method of sharing your results in a spoiler-free way, so that those you sent it to don’t see today’s Wordle word itself, only the colours in your grid to show how well you did.
To share your Wordle results, simply complete (or lose) today’s Wordle, and then wait a moment for the statistics panel to appear on your screen. Then tap the “SHARE” button.
On PC this will simply copy the text into your clipboard, so you can then paste the text anywhere you wish, whether it’s a private message or a status update on social media. On iPhone or Android, when you tap the “SHARE” button you’ll have the option either to copy to clipboard, or to share the results directly to another app on your phone (such as WhatsApp or Twitter).
Using the built-in sharing feature of Wordle is a much nicer way of sharing your results than potentially spoiling the answer to those who haven’t yet had the chance to play today’s Wordle themselves. So we highly encourage you to use it!
How to play Wordle
Wordle is wonderfully simple. The aim is to guess the correct five-letter word within six guesses. After each guess, the letters of your chosen word will highlight green if they’re in the correct place, yellow if they’re in the wrong place, or grey if they don’t appear in the word at all.
Using these clues you can start to narrow down the correct word. Head over to theWordlesite to try it for yourself!
How did Wordle begin?
Are any Wordle words not allowed?
Youcan type in any words you like, but be aware that the actual answer will never be a rude word.
You can type in pretty much any five-letter word in the English language and Wordle will accept it as a guess. However, the answer is picked each day from a much smaller list of more common five-letter words. There are still thousands of possible answers, of course, but it means the answer will never be a word as obscure as, say, “THIOL”, or “CAIRD”, or “MALIC” (yes, those are all real words).
There are very occasional words which the New York Times will choose not to publish as the day’s Wordle answer, perhaps for reasons relating to recent news or politics. For example, shortly after news broke that Roe v Wade might be overturned in the United States, the NYT decided to change the March 30th word from “FETUS” to “SHINE”, as the feeling was that the word “fetus” was too politically charged a word in the context of recent events.
The New York Times has also been careful never to allow what they consider to be rude words as the answer to a Wordle puzzle. But of course there’s nothing stopping you from using even the dirtiest of words as guesses, as long as they’re accepted words in the dictionary, and as long as you realise that they’ll never end up being the answer.
