The answers to today’s Quordle, game #1008, are…
MACAWLIEGEGOUGECARGO
Quordle really threw all of the repeats at us today, with MACAW, LIEGE and GOUGE each containing one. These are all fairly tough words in their own right, too. MACAW has a W at the end, which isn’t a common thing, while LIEGE is just not a widely used word at all. I solved all four thanks to help from my start words but I suspect others won’t be so lucky today.
