Answer: BUDGE

Strategy for Solving

Today's answer, "budge," is a common verb but can be tricky because of the less frequent 'U' in the second position and the 'G' in the fourth. The word has no double letters, which narrows down possibilities.

A good starting word like "STARE" or "CRANE" would have revealed the 'E' at the end quickly. After that, guessing common consonants like 'B' and 'G' becomes key. The 'U' is often overlooked, but once you have the pattern _ _ _ _ E, focusing on words with 'U' in the middle (like "BUDGE") can lead you to the solution.

Remember, Wordle success often comes from using a strong starting word and eliminating possibilities systematically. Good luck with tomorrow's puzzle!
