Answer

UNLIT

This word is an adjective formed by adding the prefix 'un' to the past participle 'lit,' creating a term that describes something that has not been ignited or illuminated. It is commonly used when describing candles that have not been burned, lamps that are off, or dark spaces without any light source. The word has been part of English vocabulary for centuries, following the common pattern of negation through the 'un' prefix.

Strategy Tip

Words beginning with UN are worth keeping in mind when you have ruled out more common starting letters. Today's puzzle is a good reminder that prefixes like UN can appear in Wordle answers, so consider these patterns when you are stuck.
