Quordle today (game #819) - the answers
The answers to today's Quordle, game #819, are…
- PLAID
- ADAGE
- DIODE
- ELBOW
This is a potentially tricky Quordle due to the repeated letters in both ADAGE and DIODE, together with the relatively uncommon nature of both words. That I didn't find it difficult was mostly down to the performance of my start words, which between them gave me all but three of the letters I needed.

I had all five for PLAID, which I duly solved with no problems, and was able to guess DIODE because I couldn't think of any other options that fit. ADAGE caused me a like more thought – I nearly guessed EVADE – while ELBOW was a shot to nothing that came off.

An avid photographer, Marc likes nothing better than taking pictures of very small things (bugs, his daughters) or very big things (distant galaxies). He also enjoys live music, gaming, cycling, and beating Wordle (he authors the daily Wordle today page).
