Answer

AGLOW

AGLOW is an adjective meaning glowing or radiating light, often with a warm or soft quality. It can describe both literal illumination, like a room aglow with candlelight, and figurative warmth, such as a face aglow with pride. The word combines the prefix 'a' meaning 'in a state of' with 'glow,' creating an evocative descriptor popular in poetry and romantic literature.

Strategy Tip

Words that start with a vowel followed by consonants can be tricky in Wordle. If you suspect a word might begin with A, consider trying words that test common A combinations like AL, AG, or AN to narrow down your options quickly.
