Wordle December 11: Can You Solve Today’s Wordle Puzzle?

Take A Fun Mental Break With Today’s Wordle Puzzle And Test Your Guessing Skills Now

It’s December 11, and after a whirlwind of deadlines last month, I’m definitely craving a Christmas break. But for now, it’s time for a quick Wordle pause from work—a little mental escape to reset before tackling the next task!

Here’s your clue for today’s five-letter Wordle: the word starts with a letter that often signals a fresh start, ends with the same letter as in ‘rest,’ and somewhere in the middle you’ll find a letter that’s part of ‘pause.’

Take a guess and let this tiny break lift your spirits before diving back into the holiday chaos!

How to Play Wordle

Wordle is a popular online word puzzle that you can play daily, in which you attempt to guess a five-letter word in six guesses or fewer. It's easy to understand and addictive, perfect for that morning cup of coffee.

First Guess

Type any five-letter word that is a valid English word (like SLATE), then hit Enter.

Color Feedback

After each guess, letters will change colors:

Green: You have the correct letter in the correct location.

Yellow: You have the correct letter in the incorrect location.

Gray: The letter is not in the word at all.

Apply Logic

Now with mistakes in grays ruled out from the next guess, greens will be treated as priorities, and yellows will be tried in other locations depending on their color.

Guess Within Six Tries

Suppose you can find the word within six guesses. Congratulations! You have won for the day. Everyone gets the same puzzle each day.
