Wordle for July 8
Wordle, the daily brain-teaser from The New York Times, continues to challenge players’ vocabularies and logic skills. Each morning, there’s a fresh five-letter word, and it’s your job to crack the code.
If you’re aiming to maintain your winning streak, you’ll find hints and the answer for puzzle #1480 from July 8, 2025, just below.
How does Wordle work? The concept is simple, but solving it can be tricky. You have six attempts to guess the correct five-letter word.
After each guess, the game gives feedback: yellow means the letter is in the word but in the wrong spot, green means the letter is in the correct place, and grey means the letter isn’t in the word at all. Good luck.
Need a nudge with today’s Wordle? Here’s what you need to know:
How many vowels are in today’s word? There are 2 vowels in today’s answer.
Is there a double letter? Yes—one letter shows up twice.
It’s all about that looming sense of fear. Think: “Great fear in view of impending evil; fearful apprehension of danger; anticipatory terror.”
Starting or ending letter? Today’s word starts with a “D.”
