February 9 Wordle 600 Answer and Hints

Wordle is a daily word puzzle game that is on its 600th word. In order to play and win today, there are word puzzle fans out there who will need a little bit of help to get through it.

How To Play Wordle

To play this viral sensation, word puzzle fans will need to make sure they are heading to the right place. The original version of Wordle and the subject of this article is the New York Times Games version, which can only be accessed through the newspaper's Games page or its Crossword app. Other versions will most likely have different answers than what is listed here and can have different rules of how to play as well, like the Wordle clone that is all about books; its answers can only be book-related.

First, choose a starting Wordle word. This word must be five letters long, and it cannot be any offensive slurs. Players should also avoid previous Wordle answers, as they don't repeat, and they also can't use proper nouns. Although they can be used as guesses, Wordle answers will never be plural nouns ending in S or ES. Choose a word filled with common letters, like the word LATER. Type the word into the Wordle grid.

If a letter of the starting word turns green, it is right and in the right position or positions in the word.
If a letter becomes yellow, it is right but in the wrong position in the word.
Gray letters are incorrect.

If players of the New York Times Games Wordle keep these clues in mind, they will choose a new word that will get them closer to guessing the real answer. This word, too, will give color-coded clues; players have a total of six tries to get to the answer.
