Guess #1
“RSTLNE”… host Pat Sajak would call out those letters as free guesses in the bonus round of the 1980’s hit TV game show “Wheel of Fortune”. Who remembers this? 🙂 From these frequently occuring letters in English words, I’ll take five to make STERN.
Guess #2
Got two there, now to test the L and other vowels… how about FOLIA?
Guess #3
I see the possibility of the mystery word ending in ER; also REL. Then again, it could begin with RE. I’m going to check for U with LURED — seems good 🙂
Guess #4
We got 4 letters revealed! Now, what was this thing about following your instinct? Should have stuck with ___ER just now?? Lol. Answer is looking like ELDER to me, given that a DR_EL yields nothing I know of; and it’s hard to fit the D and L elswhere…
Yay, I’m back in the game (with a solution found within 4 moves) after that disaster in the previous puzzle Wordle 232!
