Hit the enter button to submit. After each guess, the color of the tiles will change to show how close your guess was to the word,” the website says.

Color coding gives you hints about how close you are when playing Wordle.
For example, if the letter’s square turns green it means that the letter is in the word and in the correct spot, but if it turns yellow, it means the letter is in the word but in the wrong spot.
If the tile doesn’t turn green or yellow, it means that the letter is not in the word at all.
A new Wordle is available every day, the website says.
To start, just put any five-letter word. Then hit enter, check the color doing, and enter another one. Keep going until you get the word right or run out of tries.
If you pick a word that isn’t a word, it will say it’s not in the word list. You can repeat letters. For example, if you place the letter B in a square and that square turns green, meaning it’s right, you can still put the letter B in another tile in your next turn.
According to NPR, everyone gets the same word, and you can share your results on Twitter. People try to best other people by guessing the wordle accurately in the fewest tries.
