The Wordle answer 242 has been confirmed for February 16, 2022. Today’s answer is a tough one, particularly for those who haven’t done much DIY activity in their lives. Even with a good starting word like GameRevolution’s go-to of “ARISE,” there are still a number of rarer letters that will be tricky to track down. Need more help? Today’s word has two vowels in positions 2 and 3. Require even more assistance? Read on for the Wordle answer for number 242.
What is the Wordle answer 242? (February 16, 2022)
The Wordle answer 242 is “CAULK.”
“CAULK” as a noun means “a waterproof filler and sealant, used in building work and repairs.” As a verb, it means to “seal (a gap or seam) with caulk.” (Definitions from Oxford Language)
“CAULK” isn’t a very common word, and so some players may not immediately think of it as a possible solution. What’s more, the “L” and “K” are troublesome letters that likely won’t appear in most players’ starting guesses. Words like “AUDIO” that incorporate a bunch of vowels will help nail down the “A” and “U” and make progression easier. Then it’s just a case of knocking out as many consonants as possible before making that big final guess.
So long as you aren’t playing on Hard Mode, which puts a limit on guesses by forcing the use of confirmed letters in subsequent guesses, hunting down today’s word is just a case of eliminating as many letters as possible. Each of the 26 letters of the alphabet can be guessed at least once, so use that to carefully knock them out.
