Monday is here again and it’s time to start a new week. To start preparing yourself for the days ahead, spend a few minutes trying to figure out the Wordle Answer for Today, July 29, 2024.
For the uninitiated, the goal of Wordle is to guess a daily five-letter word in six tries. The fewer guesses you make, the better, and if you fail to guess it, you end your streak.
It is for this last reason that physical exercise Today’s Wordle Answer is a top priority, as players pride themselves on maintaining their winning streak. So why risk a risky final guess when you can learn a few clues and, failing that, get the definitive answer? This page can help.
Once you have today’s word, learn more about Wordle and how The New York Times got interested in games in this interview with Jonathan Knight, head of games for the NYTimes. In keeping with the word theme, we also talked about why the NYTimes Mini Crossword is a reliable joy.

Wordle answer for word 1136 on July 29, 2024
Even with the above clues, are you still not sure and want to keep going?
The Wordle answer today is GREAT.
Luckily, I don’t have a long story to tell you today. I wanted to start with something different, so I chose “TODAY” as my first word. No results with that one. My next word was “CLUES” because I was desperate to find some. It showed me that the word had a “U”, an “E” and an “S”. Considering that these were in the wrong place, I decided to use a word that started with “SU”. My first option was “SUPER” and to my surprise, it was the correct answer!
Now you have the answer, don’t reveal it to others! Remember that you can share your results without spoilers in the form of a grid.
Of course, no one needs to know that you came to this page to know that. Maybe you can start by making a couple of false assumptions to throw them off track, perhaps?
The etymology of today’s Wordle
“SUPER” is a very common word in video games, but its history goes back a long way. As a word characterizing something excellent, “SUPER” comes from the Latin prefix “SUPER” which means that which is above. This meaning has been inherited by the modern version of the word used in expressions such as “SUPERHUMAN”, in which the prefix indicates those who are beyond human.
In jargon, the word “SUPER” began to be used in 1895 in a sense of approval. After a few years, it came back in 1967.

What to play after Wordle
Once you’ve completed your daily Wordle, the question is: what will you play next?

There are also a range of games that have put their own spin on the Wordle formula. Squaredle challenges you to find a series of words by connecting letters in a four-by-four grid. Dordle, Quorodly, Octordly and Sedecordle, meanwhile, all stick to the standard Wordle, while increasing the number of words to find. The challenge lies in how your guesses count towards all the words, so you have to decide whether you’re going to focus on a specific word or try to solve multiple words at once. Thankfully, the number of guesses you’re offered increases depending on the number of words you have to solve.
If you want a break from spelling, try GeoGuessr. Here, you’ll be given a picture of a location, anywhere, in the world, and you’ll have to place a marker where you think that location is. There’s even an Old School RuneScape version.
Hope you enjoyed playing Wordle today!
