Answer

BROKE

This word is the past tense of break, meaning to have damaged something or to have run out of money. In informal usage, saying someone is in this state means they have no money at all. The word comes from Old English 'brecan' and has been part of the language for over a thousand years.

Strategy Tip

Past tense words ending in E are fairly common in Wordle. If you suspect a past tense verb, remember that some verbs change their vowels entirely rather than just adding ED, like break becoming today's answer.
