Understand the Wordle response for today, June 19, 2024 This is the kind of challenge you need to keep you motivated for the next few days until the end of the week.
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 1096 from June 19, 2024
Even with the clues above, are you still not sure and want to continue with this?
The Wordle answer today is LACONIC.
After a streak of bad luck during my last game of Wordle, I was hoping I could get at least one letter with my first word. To get back to the point, I started the game using ‘AROSE’ and it worked! This time, I started by receiving two letters. My second guess was “EROSE”, but I ended the round with the same letters I already had. My next two guesses were extremely important. I first tried “BURSE”, then “VERSE”. With all the information I had at that time, it was easy to find “TERSE”.
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
Although today “TERSE” indicates a concise use of language, it is only part of the original meaning of the term. In Latin, the word “TERSUS” refers to that which is clean and neat. The term appears in French under the name “TERS”, keeping the same idea. We find records of “TERSE” with the meaning of what is polished and neat in the 16th 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 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!
