Like millions of people around the world, we’re hooked on Wordle. And being the nature-loving, hiking and outdoorsy types we are, our first thoughts are always related to the great British countryside, whether that’s well-known sights such as field or heron to more unusual options such as scree or roach.
So, for the greater good, we’ve decided to share these with you to help you nail the latest Wordle challenge. Our only disclaimer is that many of these are untested – so it might be that some of them aren’t accepted.
Happy puzzling!
What is Wordle?
Wordle is a daily online quiz in which you have to guess a five-letter word in up to six attempts. It was first created by a software designer Josh Wardle, and has since been acquired by the New York Times.
How do you play Wordle?
When you guess an incorrect word, the letters will appear in different colours: grey if none of the letters are in the correct word, yellow if it’s in the word but in a different place, and green if it’s in the word and in the right location.
