The answers to today’s Quordle, game #1036, are…

DRYLY is the kind of word that crops up occasionally in Quordle or Wordle with the potential to cause all kinds of trouble, due to the fact that it contains no vowels. Or does it? Debate rages (in some, admittedly niche, circles) as to whether Y counts as a vowel or not. The answer is that it sometimes does and it sometimes doesn’t. Here, it most definitely does, standing in for the ‘I’ sound in the middle and the ‘E’ sound at the end. However, I don’t count Y as a vowel in my Quordle hints, because it would be far too confusing to do so.

DRYLY aside, today’s game is not too difficult, but I did run it close having guessed SPOON when the answer was SNOOP. That aside, it was pretty approachable as Quordle goes.
