I hope so | Wordle #1782 (May 6, 2026)

Added: 2026-05-10

[00:00:00]Hello. Let's do Wordle for Wednesday, May 6th. Let's play. Yesterday we spun the wheel. It said to start with vogue.

[00:00:07]Vowel heavy. All right. Just an E. We could be an er word. I'm going to do a sal anagram. Let's do slate. No, slate ends with E. We can't do that. We'll do steel instead.

[00:00:18]All right. All right. So, there's an L and an E.

[00:00:23]Really looking like an er word. We're going to have so many traps in a row.

[00:00:28]Um, what could I do here?

[00:00:33]L something like liner. If we're going to go right into er, we could do that.

[00:00:39]Um, if we don't want quite want to do that yet, what could we do? I mean, lined would be a filler with the [clears throat] L. I I don't know. Do I need to be worried about ER if I already know I have the L?

[00:00:54]Um, liver's gone.

[00:00:57]So there there's going to be yeah a o u is gone like we could be something like we oh no not lever because there's no but I'm thinking double e like leer I don't think that happens or le e something I think we're okay doing liner to be honest I think we don't have enough left all right is it it's not live what is it lyken It's Lykan.

[00:01:30]Nice. So, it wasn't DR, it was EN.

[00:01:33]Okay. Well, that worked out. Um, I think I'll get I think I think I did good guesses. Let's before we uh find out, let's spin the wheel and see what tomorrow's starting word will be.

[00:01:48]All right. Kenneifa, who just uh signed up for a new month, uh suggested XYO.

[00:01:54]So, Zyo's on this wheel quite a bit. Um which is why it gets picked quite a bit.

[00:02:01]Also, it stands out when it because you we always remember when it gets picked, but as long as uh Kenny and um there's someone else who also always puts Xyo on here. Uh as long as they continue to put it on here, it's going to continue to get picked. All right. Anyway, uh tomorrow we'll be starting with Zyo. If you have the guts to follow along with me, let's do some analysis.

[00:02:23]Right, the answer was lyken. We're hard mode and we started with Vogue.

[00:02:30]524 words left. It's concerned about ER.

[00:02:34]Let's see if I was emailed a more in-depth analysis before we continue.

[00:02:44]Waiting. Waiting.

[00:02:46]log analysis. Perfect.

[00:02:49]All right. It actually suggest says say says sleet is the best. S L T. So going for that double E when you have a yellow E is actually a decent idea. I did steel. Let's see if that's on the list.

[00:02:59]Steel is actually pretty high in the list. SD. Interestingly, steel spelled E is higher in the list than steel E, but it's steel is like 3.284 and and sleet is 3.193. So it's not that big of a difference. Um, anyway, so I went steel.

[00:03:19]Come on. Steel. Uh, not stake.

[00:03:22]Steel. Thank you.

[00:03:25]Okay. Um, and steel wouldn't have actually lost on these. I just didn't have enough time to analyze it. Um, filer is what it suggests. There's 21 words left.

[00:03:37]Lifer, flyer. It really wants that F apparently. Liner is tied for third actually. So, not a bad guess. And then after that, it was only Lyken or Lyman.

[00:03:49]All right, let's go back and look at how uh I already forget. Sleet would have done.

[00:03:59]All right, sleet. It says to go liner.

[00:04:01]Okay. And after liner, it's only liken.

[00:04:04]So, exactly the same solve, just slightly different. Um, second guess.

[00:04:11]All right. Let's look at tails. It suggested start from here. It actually suggests lever. Go for the double E.

[00:04:17]After lever, it says you could go Lykan right away or you might go linen and then liken. So a three or a four.

[00:04:24]And then we can check steel. Skip Vogue entirely. Just go straight to steel. It says go bool here. B O L E. Is Vogue list? It is not.

[00:04:34]After bool, we're doing filer or lifer or liven. They're all tied. If we do filer, we still need like Lyk and Len and Livven. So it could be as bad as six. We don't lose, but this is this is a nailbiter right here. So you could get lucky and get in four, but four to six.

[00:04:54]All right. Um adu the most common starting word. This is just filet with the IE and then liner and then it could get oops could get lykan right after liner. So it could be a four or a five audio suggest pissed again and then we're in this live lykan. Well, actually suggest liven over anything else because there's also liver. I guess after live, then we do again the same trap. So it could be a four or five.

[00:05:32]Uh stare, another common starting word.

[00:05:35]We know it's not eer. It's going to go lined here, which actually I had considered instead of liner. From here, it's liken or livven.

[00:05:44]So we could get a three or could get a four. And then Trace tries to get into uh demon lan like four or five. And finally, clasp is what the official lot starts with.

[00:06:02]We're going to go tiled and then liner or livven.

[00:06:09]So, it's going to be a four or a five.

[00:06:14]Okay. Oops. Uh, whatever. Let's look at the official bot and see how people did today. Oh, grab screenshot first.

[00:06:24]Okay, we got like Lykan.

[00:06:36]Okay.

[00:06:39]In hard mode, 95 skill, 48 luck, slightly below average steps. Who started with Vogue? 56 others. Steel being the most common follow-up by far, followed by Salet, least. So, a bunch of Sal anagramrams. Then, Stern, slept, trend, peach, cheat, entry, and deter is what it suggests. That double E.

[00:07:01]It's interesting. Slate. Oh, yeah. I wouldn't suggest slate. Slate's actually above pretty high here. Interesting.

[00:07:08]Really wants that double E. Liner gave a 95. Would have preferred these F words.

[00:07:13]Filer and Lien lifer. Sorry, like these other ones. All right. And then Lyken.

[00:07:19]One solution left. Got it. It goes clasp liel lyken. So it it chooses those over linen for whatever reason. 3 started with lyken 1.9 16.7 49.9 81.8. That's pretty low for turn five. 96.6.

[00:07:39]People losing on linen, Lyan, Lyman. So that that trap trap we kept seeing.

[00:07:46]All right. Um I guess if you don't know the word Lykan, you might try Lyman.

[00:07:52]Okay, let's refresh and check regular mode. It's been a rough few days, hasn't it? There's been a few people who probably have lost like two or three days in a row. Um let's analyze this.

[00:08:08]Same skill score.

[00:08:11]So, or is it the same?

[00:08:16]There we go. 115 others. Steel, Salet, Stern, Earth, Dairy, Steam. So, there's fewer Salet indicators. Salet um indicators. What am I playing? Mini Cryptic. Uh Salet anagrams up here.

[00:08:28]Fewer. No, least for example. All right.

[00:08:33]Give a 95 for liner. It goes slate Riven Lykan. Wow, that's lucky.

[00:08:38]Okay. Five. Starting with Lyken.

[00:08:41]2% 13.9 45.3 77 is very low 94.5 the same trap.

[00:08:50]All right. Well, how'd you do
