Answer

SNAKY

SNAKY is an adjective that describes something resembling or characteristic of a snake, whether in physical appearance, movement, or behavior. It can refer to winding paths, twisting shapes, or even someone who is treacherous and cunning. The word derives directly from snake, with the suffix Y transforming the noun into a descriptive adjective.

Strategy Tip

Words ending in Y are quite common in Wordle, especially adjectives. If you suspect the answer might be descriptive, trying words with the Y ending early can help you confirm or eliminate this pattern quickly.
