Quordle today (game #905) – the answers
The answers to today’s Quordle, game #905, are…
- SYRUP
- AMISS
- OTTER
- BOTCH
Otters are great, aren’t they? With their funny little faces and the way they hold their hands up in front of them and the fact that they’re just so playful all the time. Oh to be an otter. Anyway, that was one of two words in today’s Quordle that contain a repeated letter, but neither that nor AMISS were particularly hard. SYRUP, which doesn’t have a repeat, is arguably tougher simply because it’s spelled in an unusual fashion, with the Y second. All told, a fairly easy Quordle overall.
