Wordle is a popular online word-guessing game in which players have to guess a five-letter word with limited attempts. The game provides players with a set of blank spaces representing each letter of the word, and players have six attempts to guess the correct word. After each guess, the game provides feedback by highlighting the correct letters in yellow, green, or gray. Yellow indicates the correct letter in the correct position, green indicates a correct letter in the wrong position, and gray indicates an incorrect letter. The game is addictive and has become a popular pastime for people around the world.
