Wordle Bot Analysis
After solving each Wordle puzzle, I like to visit the Wordle Bot homepage to see how well I did. I didn’t realize how accurate my initial guess was until I ran the Wordle Bot analysis. It turns out, I made a great first guess and ended up with green boxes. I debated whether to guess all new letters, but I decided to go with my instinct and took a chance. And it paid off! The yellow ‘A’ had to go in the first box, and I was pretty confident about it, so I guessed the word “aware.” After that, the only remaining letter was ‘z,’ so I guessed “azure.” Huzzah!
Today’s Score
Total wash. I didn’t earn any points for guessing in four attempts, and I didn’t tie with the Bot either.
Wordle Etymology
The word “azure” has an interesting etymology. Its origins can be traced back to both Latin and Arabic.
- Latin: The word “azure” comes from the Latin words “lazulum” or “lazuli,” which referred to the semi-precious stone lapis lazuli. This stone is known for its deep blue color and was used as a pigment for blue dyes and paints in ancient times. The Latin words “lazulum” or “lazuli” were borrowed from the Persian word “lāžaward,” which also referred to the lapis lazuli stone.
- Arabic: The Persian word “lāžaward” was derived from the Arabic word “lāzaward,” which had the same meaning, also referring to the lapis lazuli stone. The Arabic word “lāzaward” likely played a significant role in spreading the concept of this blue color to other languages, including Latin.
Over time, the use of “azure” expanded to describe the color of the sky on a clear day, a rich and vivid shade of blue. Today, “azure” is commonly used to describe various shades of blue, particularly those resembling the clear blue sky. It is often associated with a bright and vibrant blue color.
