Title: ‘Quordle’ Today: Hints and Answers for Thursday, May 1
As the day begins, it’s time to tackle another round of Quordle. If you’re new to this game, don’t worry – I’ve got you covered with a brief overview of how to play.
To start, just type in words and have four five-letter words to guess simultaneously. You’ll have nine attempts to find the correct answers. The twist is that if you correctly place a letter in one of your guesses, it will turn green. If a word contains a letter from another guess but not in the right position, it will display in yellow.
Before diving into today’s hints and answers, let’s quickly go over some general tips for playing Quordle:
1. Start by focusing on common letters and high-frequency words.
2. Use your initial guesses to generate new possibilities based on word patterns and letter combinations.
3. If you’re struggling to find the right solutions, don’t be afraid to take a break and revisit the hints later.
With that said, let’s move on to today’s Quordle hints and answers:
**Hints:**
Word 1 (top left) – type of expression with a non-literal meaning
Word 2 (top right) – banish someone from their home or country
Word 3 (bottom left) – a type of movie intended as a funny imitation of another film or genre
Word 4 (bottom right) – long curtain
Please note that three words have repeated letters.
**Answers:**
IDIO (expression with non-literal meaning)
EXILE (banish someone from home/country)
SPOOF (type of movie, parody/film genre)
DRAPE (long curtain)
Now that you have the answers, feel free to practice and improve your skills by trying previous games or exploring other word-based puzzles.
