Quordle today – hints and answers for Wednesday, May 8 (game #835)

Quordle MerriamWebster

Another day, another Quordle puzzle to get your brain buzzing. Or rather, two Quordle puzzles – because there's also the Daily Sequence version now too. I've got hints for the standard Quordle below, but not the Sequence because it's (in my experience) a little easier. But you will find answers for both in case you don't get time to play.

Quordle today (game #835) - the answers

The answers to today's Quordle, game #835, are…

SEVER
GLORY
RADAR
SMALL

A much easier Quordle today than yesterday's; this game is like a rollercoaster at the moment. That said, it's not without complications, particularly the fact that SEVER, RADAR and SMALL all have repeated letters. RADAR has two of them, of course, and is likely to be the word that causes you the most trouble today.

I didn't suffer unduly, because by the time I got to it, it was the only word I could see that fit, and I duly solved this Quordle with two guesses remaining.
