Hints for Wordle #1509

- Word Type: Primarily a verb and can also act as a noun in certain contexts.
- Clue-in-Context: It is a sound that is made when in pain or exasperation or disapproval.
Tips and Strategies
Use words heavily laden with vowels, like GRIND, LOUSE, or AUDIO, in an attempt to determine as quickly as possible which two vowels almost certainly are in the answer while also containing common consonants: G, R, and N. After your first guess, use the color feedback to refine your choices.
For example, if some letters have yellow tiles, reposition them in your next guess. The puzzle has no repeated letters here, so avoid words with repeated letters. If you get stuck, don’t stop thinking of a verb starting with “G” related to vocal expressions.
