Answer

QUICK

This word comes from the Old English word cwic meaning alive or living, which evolved to describe something done with speed or alertness. Today it primarily means moving fast or happening in a short time. The phrase quick thinking refers to the ability to react and make decisions rapidly.

Strategy Tip

Words with Q are rare in Wordle but knowing that Q is almost always followed by U can help you. If you suspect a Q word, try placing QU at the start and see what fits. There are only a handful of five letter Q words in the game.
