Today’s Wordle #1288 Hints, Clues And Answer For Saturday, December 28th
As I embark on a new day of puzzle-solving, I find myself in a winter melancholy, reminiscing about the carefree days of my childhood. The days leading up to New Year’s Eve used to be filled with excitement and anticipation, but as an adult, I now experience a sense of emptiness during this time. It’s as if the magic has worn off. Back to the game at hand – Today’s Wordle #1288.
The hint for today is “Publicly denounce.” This gives us a crucial starting point for our puzzle-solving journey. Additionally, we are informed that the solution begins with a consonant.
Using this information, I employed various strategies and techniques to arrive at the answer. After multiple attempts and careful analysis of the game’s feedback system, I was able to pinpoint the correct solution – DECRY.
In terms of competitive Wordle scoring, I earned 1 point for guessing in three and 0 points for tying with Wordle Bot. A brief explanation of the scoring system is as follows: Guessing in 1 is worth 3 points; guessing in 2 is worth 2 points; guessing in 3 is worth 1 point; guessing in 4 is worth 0 points; guessing in 5 is -1 points; guessing in 6 is -2 points and missing the Wordle is -3 points. If you outscore your opponent, you receive 1 point. In the event of a tie, you earn 0 points. Conversely, if you lose to your opponent, you receive -1 point.
It’s essential to keep track of your daily score or simply reset it for each new day. Fridays are unique in that they award double points – both positive and negative. You can maintain a running total or start fresh with each new puzzle.
Before moving on, I’d like to share some fascinating etymological information about the answer. The word “decry” originates from Old French “descrier”, signifying “to cry out, announce, or denounce”. This term is further derived from the prefix “des-” (meaning “down” or “away”) and “crier” (implying “to cry or proclaim”). By the late 16th century in English, decry had taken on the connotation of publicly condemning or criticizing something.
