Today’s Wordle Answer Explained in a Simple, Conversational Way
So today’s Wordle — puzzle No. 1623 for Nov. 28 — turned out to be one of those entries that feels simple once you see it, but surprisingly slippery when you’re actually trying to guess it. The tricky part? A repeated letter, and a shape that doesn’t immediately jump out unless your mind is already in that direction.
Before the answer was revealed, a few helpful clues were shared. First, players were warned that the puzzle included one repeated letter, which always adds a layer of second-guessing. Then came the vowel count — two of them — which isn’t unusual, but paired with a repeated character, it narrows things down just enough to make you feel like you should be able to solve it quickly. But of course, Wordle never lets us off that easy.
Another strong clue was the starting and ending letters. The word begins with C and ends with C, which dramatically shapes the structure. Even with this hint, though, there are only a handful of English words that follow that pattern, and most of them don’t immediately come to mind during the first few guesses. And then there was the final hint — the meaning of the word — pointing to a painful condition experienced by some infants. At that point, many seasoned players probably felt the “aha” moment coming.
And then the reveal landed: the answer is COLIC .

If you’ve ever heard parents talk about long nights with fussy babies, this word might feel familiar. “Colic” refers to severe, often fluctuating abdominal pain that can cause intense crying in infants. It’s one of those words that’s well-known in family and medical conversations, but not something that appears frequently in everyday vocabulary. That’s exactly the kind of term that Wordle loves to pull out for a little mid-week challenge.
Looking back at recent days, the puzzle lineup has been fairly varied. Yesterday’s answer was REMIT , and earlier in the week we had words like BUNNY , DOUGH , PLEAD , and HOVEL . It’s been a fun mix — some playful, some practical, some more obscure — which keeps the rhythm of the game interesting.
Today’s puzzle fit right into that pattern: not impossible, but definitely something that could send you down a few wrong paths before the letters finally clicked into place. And as always, that moment of relief when the grid turns green makes the effort feel worth it.
If you managed to solve it without spoilers, well done. And if you needed the hints today, that’s part of the fun too — Wordle is meant to be enjoyed, not stressed over. Ready for tomorrow?
