Quordle today (game #844) – the answers
The answers to today’s Quordle, game #844, are…
A fairly standard Quordle, somewhat complicated in that both DREAD and USUAL contain repeated letters. I lost one gamble when I played DREAM before the first one, and it took me a while to come up with the last one (which are repeated, we always catch my eye), but all four letters are quite common and I managed to solve it with one guess left.
