Answer

VAPID

VAPID is an adjective meaning lacking liveliness, tang, or force; it describes something flat, dull, or uninspiring. The word comes from the Latin 'vapidus,' meaning 'flat tasting.' It is commonly used in critical contexts to describe entertainment, conversations, or ideas that fail to engage or stimulate.

Strategy Tip

Words starting with V are less common in Wordle, so if you have confirmed a V in position one, that significantly narrows your options. Consider trying words with different vowel combinations to quickly identify which vowels are present.
