#1583 Wordle Answer and Hints for 2025-10-19 - IDEAL

Date: 2025-10-19

Hi! I'm a Wordle fan from China. Here's my Wordle strategy for 2025/10/19. I like to open with SHOUT and ALIKE - together they cover all five vowels and several useful consonants.

A
L
I
K
E
S
H
O
U
T

Excellent start! ALIKE reveals four letters right away - I, A, L, and E are all in the word (yellow), though none are in the correct positions. SHOUT misses completely, but that's fine - it helps eliminate common consonants. I now know the word contains I, A, L, and E.

A
L
I
K
E
S
H
O
U
T
P
A
N
E
L

With three confirmed vowels, I try PANEL to test new consonants while attempting to place some of these vowels. This gives me great information: A and E are still present (yellow), and L is correctly positioned at the end (green). The word ends with L!

A
L
I
K
E
S
H
O
U
T
P
A
N
E
L
E
M
A
I
L

Getting closer! I try EMAIL to further test the vowels and confirm their positions. This shows I, A, and E are all present but misplaced, while L remains correct at the end. The pattern is now _ _ _ _ L with three vowels (I, A, E) somewhere in the first four positions.

A
L
I
K
E
S
H
O
U
T
P
A
N
E
L
E
M
A
I
L
I
D
E
A
L

With L locked at the end and knowing I, A, E are in the word, I try IDEAL. This perfectly places all the vowels in the correct positions with I at the start, followed by D, E, A, and L at the end.

Answer found: IDEAL - solved in 5 guesses! IDEAL means perfect or most suitable, representing the standard of excellence. The key was recognizing that with three vowels plus L at the end, IDEAL was the logical solution.
