Today’s Wordle clue and answer on Thursday March 14 for 999

THURSDAY has rolled around again, so while you’re waiting for the weekend to hurry up and get here, why not take a break with a puzzle and try to get the Wordle response for today, March 14.

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.

Clues for today’s Wordle answer

Instead of jumping straight to the answer, you may only need a few clues to cross the line:

• Today’s word has a vowel.
• There are no repetitive letters in today’s Wordle.
• The first letter is “S”.
• This word can be used to describe the time in between two moments (and it’s also the first word of a famous Kelly Clarkson song).

Still not sure? Read on for the answer.

Even with the clues above, are you still not sure and want to continue with this?

The Wordle answer today is FROM.

I redeemed my horrible performance yesterday by getting today’s Wordle on my fourth attempt in just a few seconds. A third guess of “SCENE” helped me place most of the letters after my usual starting guesses of “OVENS” and “SINGING.” I hope the clues above have helped you continue your own streak!

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

The current word “SINCE” unfortunately does not have a very interesting history, because it has always basically always had the same meaning when referring to periods. Fifteenth-century spelling used “SYNNES” and “SINNES”, which came from the Old English spelling “SIÐÐAN”. This spelling is the most interesting thing we could find about ‘SINCE’. Well, that, and the Kelly Clarkson song “Since U Been Gone.”

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 given to you increases as the number of words you have to solve.

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!
