Answer

LEAKY

Today's word is an adjective used to describe something that has holes, cracks, or openings that allow contents to escape. It comes from the word 'leak' with the suffix 'y' added to form an adjective. The term is commonly used for plumbing issues, but can also describe anything from a tent to a secret that gets out.

Strategy Tip

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