Quordle today (game #844) – the answers
The answers to today’s Quordle, game #844, are…
A fairly standard Quordle, complicated slightly by both DREAD and USUAL containing repeated letters. I lost one guess playing DREAM before the former, and it took me a while to come up with the latter (those repeated Us always catch me out), but all four letters are quite common and I managed to solve it with one guess remaining.
