ISSUE

This versatile word can function as both a noun and a verb. As a noun, it refers to a topic of debate, a problem, or a single publication in a series. As a verb, it means to distribute or release something officially. The word comes from the Latin exire meaning to go out.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle features double letters, which is a common challenge in Wordle. When you see a letter turn yellow or green, consider whether it might appear twice in the word. Many players forget to test repeated letters, so keep this strategy in mind.
