The answers to today's Quordle, game #825, are…

  • LLAMA
  • CUMIN
  • CAULK
  • RABID

Let's be honest here: LLAMA is a horrible word for Quordle, or indeed any word game. Two Ls just don't go together at the start of a word very often in English (it's much more common in Welsh, among other languages) and it may well not have occurred to you today. Add the fact that it also has two As and you have a recipe for disaster.

Elsewhere, CAULK is a word that caused no end of problems in Wordle a couple of years ago, and neither CUMIN or RABID are exactly easy. Plus, there was a dearth of really common letters today, with no S, T, E or O to be found. I did solve it in the end, with one guess remaining, but it was hard word. On the plus side, the Daily Sequence was pretty easy.
