Quordle today (game #1183) – the answers

The answers to today’s Quordle, game #1183, are…

• SHARD
• PRINT
• SUMAC
• LEACH

Even though I only had the first letter in the correct position, and three in incorrect positions, I was confident that it would start S-H-A-R, and I was proved right when my final start word turned out a green D to create SHARD.

Changing my start word from WOULD to COULD was also a big help, as the next two words both had a C – SUMAC and LEACH – and may have been trickier to get if they didn’t.

How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below.
