Titan is larger than Mercury and is the largest moon except for Ganymede, which orbits Jupiter. Saturn was named after the Roman god of time, generation, dissolution, abundance, wealth, agriculture, periodic renewal and liberation. Sounds like the kind of god you’d want in your corner, honestly.

In any case, let’s do this Wordle! How To Solve Today’s Wordle The Hint: The lazy dog was jumped over by a brown fox. The Clue: This Wordle ends with two consonants. .

Wordle Bot Analysis I was quite confused by today’s Wordle. I got that yellow ‘I’ right off the bat, but then I tried out so many other vowels with spoil and fairy and only had an ‘I’ for all three guesses! At least fairy got it into a green box, but still. What the heck! At that point there was only one word remaining: quick.

Huzzah for me! Today’s Score I’m at -1 today thanks to zero points for guessing in four and -1 for losing to the Bot who guessed in three. Fortunately I actually got 2 points yesterday since it was 2XP Friday. Woot! Today’s Wordle Etymology The word “quick” has an interesting etymology.

It comes from the Old English word “cwicu,” which means “alive” or “living. ” This Old English term is related to other Germanic languages, such as Old High German “quik,” Old Norse “kvikr,” and Dutch “kwik,” all of which have similar meanings of being alive or lively. Can you solve today’s phrase? Play Now Over time, the meaning of “quick” expanded beyond just referring to being alive or living.

It began to encompass the ideas of being fast, lively, and full of energy. This evolution in meaning likely occurred due to the association of liveliness and vitality with speed and energy. The connection between the original sense of “alive” and the broader meanings of “lively” and “fast” is what has led to the modern usage of “quick” to describe something that happens or moves with speed, agility, or promptness.
