Today's 'Wordle' #1362 Hints, Clues And Answer For Wednesday, March 12thYesterday was Wordle Wednesday and, as we do every Wednesday, I threw an extra challenge your way. Today, I'll reveal the answer. This puzzle was:
"Three leprechauns-Finn, Bran, and Conn-find a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. They decide to divide it equally, but when they try, they discover one coin is left over.
They argue over who should get the extra coin. To settle it, they call a fourth leprechaun, Niall, to join them. Now, the coins divide perfectly, but still one coin remains.
Puzzled, they invite a fifth leprechaun, Eamon, and finally the coins divide evenly with none left over. What is the smallest possible number of gold coins that could have been in the pot?"

The Solution and Analysis:
I started the game with the word CHOIR, leaving me with 19 possible solutions and finding two green boxes. With 19 solutions left, I attempted SLATE, hoping to get a vowel. Ta-da! I succeeded in getting both vowels, and the 'S' could only fit in the #4 spot. For today, CHASE is the winning word!

Today's Wordle Etymology
"Chase" comes from Old French chacier (modern French chasser), meaning "to hunt" or "to pursue." The ancestor of chacier is Late Latin captiare, a variant of capiāre, which means "to try to capture"-a frequentative form of capere, meaning "to take or seize."
