Wordle Answer Today: Sunday, November 8, 2026 (#1968)
Stuck on today's Wordle? Start with the nudges below and only open the next hint if you need it. The answer stays hidden until the third hint. The FAQ at the very bottom spells it out, so stop before it if you want to keep playing.
Hint 1: Nudges (no spoilers)
- Four consonants and a single vowel, with no repeated letters.
- A very common word, nothing obscure or unusual.
Hint 2: Show the letters
- The first letter is F and the last letter is T.
- The only vowel is I, and it sits in the second position.
- It describes whatever comes before everything else in order, rank or time.
Hint 3: Show today's answer
FIRST means coming before everything else in order, rank or time. It works as an adjective (the first prize), an adverb (she arrived first) and a noun (a historic first).
Hint 4: Strategy notes (contains spoilers)
With one vowel and a cluster of consonants, a vowel-heavy opener tells you little. If S and T turn green at the end, several words can still fit the pattern, so it is worth spending a guess on a word that tests different first letters instead of trying the candidates one at a time.
