Today's Wordle
Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here.
STARE was a decent opening guess, leaving me with two yellow boxes and just 83 possible solutions. I think I've been playing too much D&D lately because the first word I came up with in my attempt to rearrange the 'AR' was ARMOR and I just went with it. I wish I'd thought of ARROW! I was just talking about bow and arrow stuff with my kids! Oh well, ARMOR is (oddly enough) the same exact word that the Wordle Bot came up with (maybe it's been playing too much D&D also).

I get 1 point for guessing in three and 0 for tying the Bot. The Bot gets the same. We both double our 1 and walk away with 2 points for 2XP Friday, bringing our April totals to:
Erik: 2 points
Wordle Bot: 6 points
The word "arrow" comes from the Old English word earh or ārwe, which meant the same thing—'projectile shot from a bow.' It likely has Proto-Germanic roots, such as arhwō, and is related to Old Norse ör, Gothic arhwazna, and Old High German araw.
The exact Proto-Indo-European origin is uncertain, but it may be connected to a root meaning "to bend" or "to shoot." Over time, the word evolved in English from ārwe to arrow through Middle English spellings like arwe and arewe.
