Answer for Today’s Wordle: 2 November 2025
Today’s puzzle came with a bit of bite. Players circled words like rapid, rabbi, and racer, but it took some ferocity — and a sharp eye — to land on the right one.
The answer? RABID.
A word that’s equal parts alarming and intense — describing something untamed, passionate, or, in the most literal sense, infected. It’s one of those five-letter words that instantly changes tone depending on how you use it.
When the final “D” clicked into green, it felt like taming chaos — a satisfying calm after the wild guessing storm.
When the tiles turned green, it felt like pulling into the right parking spot after a long drive — a small, satisfying moment of relief.
