Answer

DROVE

This word is the past tense of 'drive,' meaning to operate and control the direction and speed of a motor vehicle. The word traces back to Old English 'drifan,' which originally meant to push or propel forward. Interestingly, a 'drove' can also refer to a flock or herd of animals being moved together, as in 'a drove of cattle.'

Strategy Tip

Past tense verbs are common in Wordle! When you see a combination that suggests a verb ending, consider whether the puzzle might be asking for an irregular past tense form. Words like this one change their vowel sound rather than simply adding 'ed.'
