Wordle tip and answer today, Tuesday February 27 for 983

Let’s have a cup of tea and find out Wordle response for today, February 27.

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:

• There is a vowel in this word and it repeats twice as the second and fifth letter.
• This word is the name of the biological system in which the body learns information by detecting objects around it, usually through five types of this word.
• There is another repeating letter in this word, the first and fourth letters.
• You can tell someone doesn’t have a common version of that word if they’re doing something stupid.

Still not sure? Read on for the answer.

Wordle answer for word 983 from February 27, 2024

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

The Wordle answer today is SENSE.

After guessing the “E” on my first attempt with the word “BEACH”, I was really perplexed by today’s word “SENSE”. The placement of the double “E” and then the double “S” should have been a big clue, but it was somehow a little more confusing. Well, there’s always another chance to win tomorrow!

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 “SENSE” is said to come in part from the Latin word sēnsus meaning “Sensation” or “Feeling”, which is almost, if not entirely, the same as that used today. Also, what’s interesting is that it is said that in the 1590s the actual word was used to describe “a vague awareness or feeling.”

It is not uncommon to see this term used in games as well, especially in those in which characters have special abilities or powers that allow them to “FEEL” (or see the unseen) using a command special.

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!
