Wordle: Everyone is Suddenly Playing It

I deviated a bit from my usual sort of starting word. This was an absurdly fortunate decision today.

Bit unlucky with the third guess.

much like 213, luck played an inordinate part in the 4th guess.

I was worried when I got zero on my first guess, but made a quick recovery.

I cleverly (luckily) chose PIOUS as my second guess, so with POIT it was pretty easy.

I did click on it, and it looks like this:

but no matter how long I look at it, I don’t get it (assuming there is something to get?). Unless they mean that the German language contains longer words?

Ah, oke. Well, maybe it’s because I’m Dutch, but I never knew that was a β€˜thing’ about the German language (lots of long words in other languages too).

Yes - the running joke in English speaking countries (going back centuries - Mark Twain made remarks about it) are about how amazingly long words can be in Germanic languages (thanks to compounding). Thus for an English game with a 5 letter limit, it amuses us to picture the German version having a dozen letters ;)

Its always just dumb luck to do it

Haha, it was the only word I could think of that would fit and it was the right one.
