If a puzzle proves too difficult to solve after a busy Tuesday, we can help you solve this problem. Wordle response for today, June 18, 2024.
For the uninitiated, the goal of Wordle is to find a five-letter word in six guesses every day. The fewer guesses, the better – and if you don’t get it right at all, you’ll end your streak.
This is why training today’s Wordle answer is such a priority because players take pride in continuing their streak. So why gamble on a risky final guess when you can learn a few clues and, failing that, get the definitive answer? This page can help you.
Once you’ve got the hang of today’s word, learn more about Wordle and how the New York Times got interested in games in this interview with NYTimes gaming editor Jonathan Knight. In keeping with the theme of words, we also explained why the NYTimes Mini Crosswords are a reliable joy.

Wordle answer for word 1095 from June 18, 2024
Even with the clues above, are you still not sure and want to continue with this?
The Wordle answer today is BLANKET.
I started today’s game by choosing three words which were a complete failure. It wasn’t until my fourth attempt with the word “COLOR” that I finally managed to understand some of the letters. The first word that came to mind was “COVEN”. Fortunately, I remembered this word with one more attempt, which gave me a chance to complete the puzzle.
Now you have the answer, don’t spoil it for others! Don’t forget that you can share your spoiler-free results in the form of a grid.
Of course, no one should know that you came to this page to solve the problem. Maybe start by making a couple of false assumptions to confuse them, perhaps?
The etymology of today’s Wordle
Regarding the roots of the word “COVER”, we find a connection with the Latin word “COOPERIRE” meaning to cover. In Old French, the word “COUVRIR” seems to represent the action of protecting or concealing something. Borrowing this word from Old French, Middle English gave rise to the word “COVEREN”.
Another common use we have of the word “COVER” is in the sense of including something. However, this meaning only appeared at the beginning of the 19th century.

What to play after Wordle
Once your daily Wordle is over, the question is: what are you going to play now?
You can of course try the other word games offered by the New York Times, such as Spelling Bee, Mini Crossword and Letter Boxed. You can also try your luck at Connections, the daily Sudokus and Tiles – a rather additive pattern matching game.
There are also a range of games that have tweaked the Wordle formula. Squaredle challenges you to find a series of words by connecting letters in a four-by-four grid. Meanwhile, Dordle, Quorodly, Octordly and Sedecordle all stick to the standard Wordle, while increasing the number of words you need to find. The challenge lies in how your guesses count for all words. So you need to decide whether you are going to focus on a specific word or try to solve multiple words at the same time. Fortunately, the number of guesses you are given increases as the number of words you need to solve increases.
If you want to take a break from spelling, try GeoGuessr. Here you will be given an image of somewhere, anywhere, in the world and asked to place a marker on where you think that location is. There is even an Old School RuneScape version.
Hope you enjoyed playing Wordle today!
