Let’s break down today’s word, just enough to nudge you toward the right answer without spoiling the fun too early.

Has two vowels
No repeated letters
Think of a repetitive, rhythmic sound
Still stumped? Imagine the soft hum of guitar strings… or the low buzz of machinery in the background.
Today’s Wordle Answer: THRUM
Definition: “Thrum” refers to a continuous rhythmic sound, like a hum or a drone. It can be used both as a noun and a verb:

Verb: “He thrummed his fingers on the table.”
It’s the kind of word that’s familiar once you see it — but not one that immediately jumps to mind.
