Wordle today offers a nice challenge that fits neatly between too easy and too hard – although you might find it leaning towards the latter if you don't choose the best Wordle start word.
In fact, there are a couple of complicating factors to today's game, so if you don't play carefully you could risk losing your streak. But I can help make sure that doesn't happen.
I'm a Wordle addict who's been playing since December 2021, so I can definitely help you solve Wordle today and improve your game for tomorrow. Read on for my hints and clues to Wordle #587.
SPOILER WARNING: Information about Wordle today and Wordle yesterday are below, so don't read on if you don't want to know the answers.
Wordle today (game #587) – hint #1 – Vowels
Wordle astăzi are o vocală *
This is relatively unusual for Wordle – the game has an average of 1.75 vowels among its 2,309 answers.
The last game to have just one vowel in it was #581 on Saturday: BLURB.
* Note that by vowel we mean the five standard vowels (A, E, I, O, U), not Y (which is sometimes counted as a vowel too).
Wordle today (game #587) – hint #2 – first letter
Prima literă din răspunsul Wordle de astăzi este W .
W is the 13th most common starting letter in Wordle, with 82 solutions beginning with this letter.
You'd have to go back all the way to Wordle #561, on Sunday 1 January, for the last time we had an answer that started with a W – in that case the solution was WHINE.
Wordle today (game #587) – hint #3 – repeated letters
Există one repeated letter în Wordle de astăzi.
Repeated letters are quite common in the game, with 748 of the 2,309 Wordle answers containing one. That’s roughly 15%, meaning you'd get one every 6-7 games.
As it happens we last had one just yesterday, in game #586 (BEEFY).
Wordle today (game #587) – hint #4 – final clue

Wordle today (game #587) – the answer
(Credit imagine: New York Times)
Wordle today was theoretically a tricky one, with an uncommon W at the start and a double-R in the middle.
WordleBot rated it at an average of 4.3, which is above the standard 4 that most games even out at. I managed it in 4/6 myself, so slightly below the average, despite a poor start that left me with 77 possible answers after my initial guess of CRATE.
With no vowels uncovered on my opening guess, I wanted to play a couple more on my second and went with ROUND. This proved quite fortunate, giving me a green O in position #2 and ruling out the R as the starting letter.
WordleBot said I now had just 7 possible solutions left, although I didn't know that at the time (you can only use WordleBot once the game is finished). However, I could see that there weren't many options, and came up with just 4 myself: WORRY, SORRY, LORRY and PORKY. The ones I missed were FORGO, MORPH and WORMY.
All of my options ended in a Y and three had a double R before that, so I decided to head down that path and played SORRY next. I wasn't right, but WORRY seemed a much more likely answer than the very British LORRY, and so it proved when all five letters turned green.
Hopefully you solved it too and found Wordle today to be a reasonably straightforward challenge.
Wordle yesterday (game #586) – hints
In a different time zone where it's still Thursday? Don't worry – I can give you some hints for Wordle #586 too.
Wordle a avut ieri two vowels *
Prima scrisoare din răspunsul Wordle de ieri a fost B .
Nu a fost one repeated letter în Wordle de ieri.
Yesterday's Wordle answer means heavily built.
Wordle yesterday (game #586) – the answer
(Credit imagine: New York Times)
Wordle #586 was quite a tough one, with WordleBot stating that it took most people 4.6 guesses to solve it. That's really high: anything above 4 is more difficult than normal, and once you get past 4.5 you're into very hard territory.
There are a couple of reasons why it might have proved difficult. For starters, it has an F in the fourth position, something that only occurs in 35 of Wordle's 2,309 games. The double-E in the middle is not that uncommon – 59 games have an EE somewhere – but it still makes the word harder to guess.
Plus, as a word itself BEEFY isn't all that common; it's definitely on the slang side of things.
Fortunately, I got very lucky with my second guess after my opening CRATE left me with just a single yellow E.
My go-to second word in these situations is BLEND and that came up trumps, giving me a green B and green E and leaving me with just one possible solution. Lucky me!

Ce este Wordle?
Dacă sunteți pe această pagină, atunci aproape sigur știți ce este Wordle deja și, într-adevăr, probabil că îl jucați de ceva vreme. Și chiar dacă nu te-ai jucat, cu siguranță că ai auzit de el până acum, pentru că este fenomenul viral al jocului de cuvinte care a luat lumea cu asalt anul trecut și continuă să fie puternic în 2023.
Avem un ghid complet al jocului în pagina noastră Ce este Wordle, dar dacă vrei doar o reîmprospătare, atunci iată elementele de bază.
Ce este Wordle?
Wordle vă provoacă să ghiciți un cuvânt nou de cinci litere în fiecare zi. Primești șase presupuneri, fiecare dezvăluind puțin mai multe informații. Dacă una dintre literele din ipoteza ta se află în răspuns și în locul potrivit, devine verde. Dacă este în răspuns, dar în locul greșit, devine galben. Și dacă nu este deloc în răspuns, devine gri. Simplu, nu?
Se joacă online prin intermediul Site-ul Wordle (se deschide într-o filă nouă) or the New York Times' Crossword app (iOS (se deschide într-o filă nouă) / Android (se deschide într-o filă nouă) ), și este complet gratuit.
În mod esențial, răspunsul este același pentru toată lumea în fiecare zi, ceea ce înseamnă că concurezi cu restul lumii, mai degrabă decât împotriva ta sau a jocului. Puzzle-ul apoi se resetează în fiecare zi, la miezul nopții, la ora dvs. locală, oferindu-vă o nouă provocare și șansa de a vă extinde seria.
Care sunt regulile Wordle?
Regulile Wordle sunt destul de simple, dar cu câteva bile curbe aruncate pentru o bună măsură.
1. Literele care sunt în răspuns și în locul potrivit devin verzi.
2. Literele care sunt în răspuns, dar în locul greșit, devin galbene.
3. Literele care nu sunt în răspuns devin gri.
4. Răspunsurile nu sunt niciodată la plural.
5. Literele pot apărea de mai multe ori. Deci, dacă presupunerea dvs. include două litere dintr-o singură literă, ambele pot deveni galbene, ambele devin verzi sau una ar putea fi galbenă, iar cealaltă verde.
6. Fiecare presupunere trebuie să fie un cuvânt valid în dicționarul Wordle. Nu poți ghici ABCDE, de exemplu.
7. Nu trebuie să includeți litere corecte în presupunerile ulterioare decât dacă jucați în modul Hard.
8. Aveți șase presupuneri pentru a rezolva Wordle.
9. Trebuie să completați Wordle zilnic înainte de miezul nopții în fusul dvs. orar.
10. Toate răspunsurile sunt extrase din lista Wordle de 2,309 de soluții. In orice caz…
11. Wordle va accepta un număr mai mare de cuvinte ca presupuneri – aproximativ 10,000 dintre ele. De exemplu, puteți ghici un plural, cum ar fi CUVINTE. Cu siguranță nu va fi corect (vezi punctul 4 de mai sus), dar Wordle o va accepta ca o presupunere.
