DAIRYRALLYCURLYLABEL
This was a remarkably straightforward Quordle for me, despite the repeated letters in both RALLY and LABEL. All four words are very common, as are all 10 letters that are used here. And it’s that final point that probably made the most difference today; most Quordles use a far greater number of distinct characters, for instance yesterday’s had 12 and Tuesday’s was at 14. Nine out of the 10 were in my three start words, too, with B the only letter I had to add to the mix. With three of the answers ending in a Y, two of them ending in LY and five Ls overall, if you simply played by probability today you’ll have been fine.
