Wordle Today: July 7 Puzzle Has Fans Scratching Their Heads (Again)
Hey everyone! Let’s talk about today’s Wordle — yep, puzzle #1479 — and if you’re anything like me, this one had you second-guessing almost every vowel in the English language before finally landing that winning word. Don’t worry, if you struggled, you weren’t alone.
So, first things first. If you’re still holding out on guessing today’s word, spoiler alert — the answer is STILT . That’s right — that quirky little five-letter word that describes those long, skinny supports used to keep things elevated. Whether it's a bird wading through the shallows or a house built in flood zones, "stilt" has been pulled from the corners of our vocabulary vaults and thrown into the Wordle spotlight.

Now, if you’re wondering how we got there, the hints definitely helped. For starters, the word begins with “S,” and the letter “T” shows up not once, but twice. That double-letter clue tripped up quite a few of us — especially since “T” isn’t usually one people double down on early. Some of us went down the “startle” or “stint” rabbit hole before finally arriving at “stilt.” A classic Wordle move: deceptively simple, sneakily tricky.
What I love about days like this is how Wordle somehow keeps the challenge fresh. The format hasn’t changed — five letters, six tries — yet the game still manages to surprise us. And while some folks might say it's getting harder, that’s not really the case. The game’s difficulty curve has stayed pretty level. But if you're feeling bold, there’s always “Hard Mode” to turn up the pressure.
And for those curious about the origins, Wordle started as a love project — literally. Josh Wardle made it as a gift for his partner. Since then, it’s blown up into this daily ritual for millions of players around the world. The New York Times scooped it up, and now we’ve got entire communities built around solving, discussing, and even livestreaming their Wordle attempts. Wild, right?
Oh, and if you're craving more puzzle action, Mashable has a whole library of games like Sudoku, Mahjong, and crosswords, not to mention other Wordle-inspired spin-offs like Dordle and Quordle for those days when one word just isn't enough.
So, if STILT stumped you, don’t sweat it. There’s a brand-new Wordle waiting tomorrow. And if you did nail it in three tries or less — hats off to you, Wordle wizard.
Same time, same puzzle tomorrow. Let’s do this again.
