Lots of luck for your humble narrator today. STARE wasn’t a great or terrible opener, leaving me with just one yellow box and 120 remaining solutions. CLOUD slashed that number to four, three of which began with the letter ‘D’. DIGIT, DITTY, DITZY and WIDTH were the words I came up with, and I picked DITTY because I figured it was more likely than DITZY, I didn’t want to pick WIDTH since it was the only ‘W’ word and I swear we’ve had DIGIT already, though I could be wrong. Lucky me, DITTY was the Wordle!

I get 1 point for guessing in three and 1 more point for beating the Bot, who took five tries today. That’s 2 points (I’ve been up or down 2 points every day for the last four days now) but since it’s 2XP Friday that means I get 4 points. Huzzah!
The word ditty comes from the Old French dité (meaning “composition” or “something said”), which itself derives from the Latin dictātum (“thing dictated”), from dictāre (“to dictate” or “to compose”). Over time, ditty came to mean a short, simple song or poem in English.

Need a clue for today’s Wordle puzzle? You’ve come to the right place.
However, before diving into the hints and solutions for the Thursday, Feb. 13 puzzle, let’s go over the basics of Wordle.
Wordle is a word puzzle that gives players six chances to guess a five-letter word. Originally created by software engineer Josh Wardle and released to the public in 2021, the puzzle was acquired by The New York Times in 2022 after rising to huge popularity.
Players can pick any “starter word” to begin the puzzle. From there, blocks will turn green when the right letter is in the right place, yellow when the right letter is in the wrong place and gray when the letter doesn’t exist in the puzzle.
The Times’ Wordle editor Tracy Bennett told TODAY.com in a 2023 interview that she didn’t think “any word is a bad choice.” After analyzing 515 million games in 2023, the New York Times’ Wordlebot recommended “trace” as a solid go-to starter word for any day.
You can play Wordle for free, though to save your statistics and see deeper analysis, you’ll need a New York Times Games subscription or a full New York Times subscription.
