Trying to wake up your brain with a word puzzle? Then we can help you with the Wordle response for today, June 25, 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.
Clues for today’s Wordle answer
Instead of jumping straight to the answer, you may only need a few clues to cross the line:
- The word contains two vowels.
- There are no repeating letters in this word.
- This word starts with ‘S’.
- Related to how people enjoy food.

Wordle answer for word 1102 from June 25, 2024
Even with the clues above, are you still not sure and want to continue with this?
The Wordle answer today is FLAVOR.
On Tuesday we start with “BACON”. This isn’t a rule, but it actually worked this time because it gave both vowels and their exact position. I then guessed “TAROT”, to see if the heart of the cards could help me. This didn’t necessarily solve the riddle but I knew the word had an “R” somewhere. Following this word, I chose ‘CAUSE’, just to check if I could have a new vowel or an idea of consonants. Again, nothing solid but I learned that the word has an ‘S’. After thinking for a few minutes, trying “SAPOR” and finding that only the middle letter was wrong, I arrived at “SAVOR”.
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 etymology of the word “FLAVOR” shows us how closely it has remained linked to the idea of flavor throughout history. There are records explaining that in Latin the word “SAPOREM” meant flavor and that it was linked to the word “SAPOR”, the verb which expresses the act of tasting something.
We find another register in Old French of the word “KNOW” with the meaning which links taste to pleasure.

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!
