The answers to today’s Quordle, game #848, are…

A few Quordle puzzles today may put a little more strain on the brain than usual. OVINE is not a particularly common word and may not immediately come to mind, while TABOO has an unusual structure with a repeated O at the end of the word. I spent a good five minutes solving the latter, but other than that I got away from it slightly, with my seed word strategy again doing a lot of the hard work.
