The answers to today’s Quordle, game #927, are…

Quordle is always easier when some of the answers start with the same letter, because getting the beginning of a word is almost always more useful than getting the middle or end — it’s probably because of how the human brain recognizes patterns. Today, three of Quordle’s answers start with S, and since one of my three starting words, STARE, also starts that way, I had an immediate advantage with three-quarters of the puzzle done.

Good thing, because SPRIG isn't an obvious word to play, and TASTE could have been tricky too, but I had a lot of letters to play with from the start and I solved them all with two guesses to spare.
