#1617 Wordle Answer and Hints for 2025-11-22 - THICK

Date: 2025-11-22

Hi! I'm a Wordle fan from China. Here's my Wordle strategy for 2025/11/22. I like to open with ALIKE and SHOUT to quickly identify key letters and vowels.

A
L
I
K
E
S
H
O
U
T

Good start! From ALIKE I learn that I is in position 3 (green) and K is present but not in the right position. From SHOUT I discover that H is in position 2 (green) and T is also present somewhere. This gives me four important letters to work with: T, H, I, and K with some positional information.

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

Excellent progress! Based on the green letters I have (_HI__) and knowing T and K are both present, I try THINK. This is a breakthrough! I confirm that T is in position 1, H is in position 2, I is in position 3, and K is in position 5. Only N is absent, so the pattern is THI_K with just one letter to determine.

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

With the pattern THI_K clearly established and knowing T, H, I, K are all correct, the answer becomes obvious. I try THICK and it's perfect - all letters lock into their correct positions!

Answer found: THICK - solved in 4 guesses! THICK means having great depth or dimension. The key breakthrough was using THINK to establish the THI_K pattern early, which made the final guess straightforward.
