Today's hints
Each hint gives a little more away. Stop as soon as it clicks.
Hint 1 — reveal hint
No letter repeats. The word is an adverb about how something looks, not a physical object.
Hint 2 — reveal hint
There is only one standard vowel. Y is doing the adverb ending, not sitting in the middle.
Hint 3 — reveal hint
That vowel is I, and it sits in the second square. Openers packed with A, E, and O will look emptier than usual.
Hint 4 — reveal hint
It starts with D and ends with Y. Think of a room where the lights are turned down, not off.
Hint 5 — reveal hint
The pattern is D I _ _ Y. The middle pair is a quiet M and L, not a brighter double letter.
Hint 6 — reveal hint
If you have DIMLY, you have Wordle #1935.

Why this answer
Why DIMLY fits Wordle #1935
DIMLY is the five-letter adverb for something seen faintly — a hallway, a screen, or a memory that is not fully lit. The letter pattern is unforgiving in a different way from yesterday’s coffee-shop word: there is only one standard vowel, I, parked in slot two, while Y closes the adverb.
A, E, and O do not appear, so vowel-heavy openers can stall. Once D and Y lock, the remaining consonants are M and L. That cluster points at dimness rather than a brighter cousin such as DAILY or DINGY. No letter repeats, so you do not need a second I or a double M.
If the board still felt dark after five guesses, the meaning was the giveaway: not a noun for a light, but the way the light is failing.

Wordle hints for October 6, 2026
Tuesday’s Wordle is a short adverb, not a thing you can hold. Start with a guess that still tests D, L, and Y even if it wastes a couple of common vowels. The board will look sparse until I lands in the second square.
Stop at any hint above if you still want to finish it yourself. The reveal and a short letter-pattern note sit under the lock.
Letter pattern for Wordle #1935
- Five unique letters
- One standard vowel: I in position 2
- Starts with D, ends with Y
