★Today's Wordle answer, explained

The answer is CLICK.
What it means — noun: A brief, sharp, not particularly loud, relatively high-pitched sound produced by the impact of something small and hard against something hard, such as by the operation of a switch, a lock or a latch, or a finger pressed against the thumb and then released to strike the hand.

The puzzle, explained

CLICK was a tricky one because that double C in the middle is so unusual—most Wordles stick to common letter patterns, so if you didn't get lucky with early guesses, you might've spent several turns chasing down what felt like a normal word. The real kicker is that it has only one vowel (I), which narrows your options fast but also means you can't rely on vowel placement to guide you like usual. If you nailed it quickly, you probably hit the C early and got bold with the double letter; if it took you the full six tries, that repeating C likely sent you down some frustrating rabbit holes with words like CHICK or CLOCK.
