‘Quordle’ Today: Hints and Answers for Saturday, May 3

Welcome to your daily dose of Quordle help! Whether you’re here to preserve your streak, push past a tricky set of clues, or simply enjoy the puzzle with a little nudge, you’re in the right place.

Before diving into today’s Quordle hints and answers, let’s quickly cover the basics for newcomers.

How to Play Quordle

Quordle is like Wordle — but times four. Instead of solving just one five-letter word, you must figure out four different five-letter words at the same time. You get nine guesses total, and each word uses the same guess at once. That means strategy matters more than ever.

Correct letters in the right spot will appear in green, and correct letters in the wrong spot show up in yellow. The rest are gray, which means those letters aren’t used in that particular word.

Sound tricky? It can be — but that’s part of the fun. You can always try the practice mode to get your brain warmed up before the daily challenge.

Word Breakdown:

PLUSH
This cozy word often describes a type of soft fabric or a fancy, velvety texture. In the context of toys, “plush” is commonly paired with the word “toy” — think teddy bears and stuffed animals.

VERGE
Whether it’s the edge of a cliff or the cusp of an emotional breakdown, “verge” captures that delicate boundary. It’s a versatile word used in both literal and figurative expressions.

WROTE
A straightforward past tense of “write,” this one may have been easier to guess for regular word game players. Great for locking in the “W,” “R,” and “E” early on.

CONDO
Short for “condominium,” this urban living arrangement is common in cities and shared residential complexes. It’s also a fun word that doesn’t always appear in typical word lists — making it a sneaky challenge.
