How to solve today’s Wordle. Looking for Wednesday’s Wordle hints, clues and answer? You can find them here: Forbes Today’s ‘Wordle’ #1418 Hints, Clues And Answer For Wednesday, May 7th By Erik Kain It’s Thor’s Day, so I’m going to give you the answer to yesterday’s Wordle Wednesday puzzle. This was the puzzle: There are three boxes in a room. One of these boxes contains gems. At least one box has a true statement written on it. At least one box has a false statement written on it. These are the three boxes: Black box says: “The statement on the white box is true.” White box says: “Statements with the word ‘white’ are always true.” Blue box says: “The gems are in the white box.” Which box contains the gems? Play Puzzles & Games on Forbes The answer is: The White Box Summary of logic: If White were true → all boxes true → violates “at least one false.” Thus White is false . If White is false, then Black (saying “White is true”) must also be false . Since at least one must be true, Blue must be true . If Blue is true → the gems are in the White box . In any case, it’s Wordle time! How To Solve Today’s Wordle The Hint: Pleasant weather. The Clue: This Wordle begins with a consonant. Okay, spoilers below! . . .

Today’s Wordle Etymology Balmy comes from the Middle English balmi which means both “fragrant” and “soothing.” This in turn comes from balm, which refers to an aromatic ointment. That word derives from the Old French basme, itself rooted in the Latin balsamum, which means balsam. The Latin can be traced back further to the Greek word balsamon. In modern English, the word balmy refers to pleasant weather. Let me know how you fared with your Wordle today on Twitter , Instagram or Facebook.
