Wordle answers — September 26, 2026 (#1925)

★Today's Wordle answer, explained

The answer is ELEGY.

The puzzle, explained

ELEGY was a tricky one because that double E caught a lot of people off guard—most Wordles don't repeat letters, so your brain isn't always primed to guess one. The Y at the end threw things off too, since it's functioning as a vowel there rather than a consonant, which meant you really needed to think about less common word endings. If you started with a standard opener like STARE or CRANE, you probably felt stuck after getting that first E, since ELEGY doesn't have many common consonants to work with (just L and G). On the flip side, once you nailed down the E-_-E-G-Y pattern, there weren't many words that fit, so the puzzle actually solved itself pretty quickly.

Can the Wordle answer have repeated letters?

Does Wordle use American or British spelling?

Wordle is edited by the New York Times and uses American spellings — worth remembering for words like FAVOR or COLOR.
