Thursday's Quordle brings four new puzzles to solve. Or does it? Because unlike Wordle, Quordle answers do sometimes repeat. (I'm not saying any of today's do, and in fact I have no idea whether any have appeared today, but it's worth knowing that it's a possibility.)
Anyway, the puzzles may be new (or possibly not), but the challenge is the same as always: find all four words in nine guesses or you are, officially, a loser. Sorry!
SPOILER WARNING: Information about Quordle today is below, so don't read on if you don't want to know the answers.

Quordle today (game #822) - the answers
The answers to today's Quordle, game #822, are…
- WHILE
- DODGY
- MACHO
- LOATH
This was one of those days where the Daily Sequence was a lot tougher than the standard Quordle. A really obscure word in the form of ECLAT? Repeated letters in TAFFY and ANNOY? The Daily Sequence had them all, whereas the original Quordle game's only real complication was the repeated D in DODGY.
Admittedly, I did need an extra guess to solve MACHO (I played HAVOC first), but ultimately it was a reasonably approachable Quordle.
