MADAM

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle features double letters, specifically the same letter appearing multiple times. When you see repeated letters in your Wordle results, consider that the letter might appear more than twice. This word actually has one letter appearing three times, which is relatively rare but worth considering when you are stuck.
