It’s Wednesday, and you know what that means: it’s time for another round of Quordle. That’s right, there’s a new batch of words to figure out and I’ll help you on your way with clues and the answers.

For those trying Quordle for the first time, here’s how to play: Just start typing in words. You have four five-letter words to guess and nine attempts to find them all. The catch is that you play all four words simultaneously.

If you get a letter in the right place for any of the four words, it will light up in green. If a word contains a letter from one of your guesses but it’s in the wrong place, it will appear in yellow. After you use a letter in a guess, you’ll also see on the keyboard whether it’s in any of the words. You could always check out the practice games before taking on the daily puzzle too.

Here are some clues for today’s Quordle game, followed by the answers:
