Answer

ROCKY

This adjective describes something consisting of or covered with rocks and stones. The word comes from the Old English word meaning full of rocks. Beyond its literal meaning for describing terrain, it is commonly used figuratively to describe situations that are unstable or difficult, like a rocky marriage or a rocky start to a project.

Strategy Tip

Words ending in Y are fairly common in Wordle, so if you have confirmed a few consonants but are stuck, consider whether adding Y at the end creates a valid word. This pattern appears frequently in adjectives.
