These clues focus on basics like the opening letter and vowel setup, perfect for keeping your streak alive or simply sharpening your daily solve.

Three spoiler-free hints lead the way, followed by a nudge toward the word's meaning. Scroll at your own pace—the full reveal sits below to confirm once you've puzzled it out.

Hints (spoiler-free)

  1. Starts with the letter B.
  2. Contains two vowels.
  3. No repeated letters.

Stronger hint: To move something that’s stuck.

ANSWER

BUDGE

Average in challenge, this puzzle often clicks in 3 guesses for those who snag the vowels early via openers like ADIEU, getting D, E, and U in yellow tiles. Words like FUDGE then test common letters like F and G in the mix, often greening U, D, G, and E. The proper fit snaps into place once positions align.

Meaning & usage

Plain-English definition: To make something/somebody move slightly.

Part of speech: verb.

  • The heavy box wouldn't budge from its spot.
  • He tried to budge her from her stubborn opinion.

Note: BUDGE packs two vowels (U, E) amid common consonants; the spread vowels plus DG in the middle keep it tricky until yellows shift right, but B opener and GE close plus nudge sense distinguish it once tiles green up.

Quick solving tip

With two vowels like today's U and E and no repeated letters, launch with vowel-consonant blends such as ADIEU or ARISE to isolate them early alongside yellows like D, then pivot to testers like FUDGE that probe clusters like _UDGE while positioning the vowels, confirming greens and yellows across B_U_DG_E frame. This layered approach shines on multi-vowel words without repeats, trimming options swiftly even against budge or nudge alternatives, and often seals solves in under four by prioritizing the vowel pair before the medial DG confirms.
