Donut or Doughnut?
Some players struggled to solve the puzzle because there were too many letter options, but some struggled with today's challenge because they were unfamiliar with the word. So is it DONUT or DOUGHNUT?
While some UK Wordle players are insistent that the word is spelled 'doughnut' actually, the spelling of the word 'donut' in Wordle is also correct. In the UK the word doughnut is a noun that means 'a small fried cake of sweetened dough, typically in the shape of a ball or ring.' The American version of this word is 'donut' and it means the exact same thing.
