Just like yesterday, February 12th’s Wordle answer features a repeating letter that could result in players losing their daily streaks if they aren’t careful. The repeating vowel is also a vowel you will need to find in your first few attempts to solve the answer. While there are no hints to let you know about repeating letters in Wordle, using a different mode might make the process easier.

Since there is a repeating vowel, you will be better off using Wordle’s hard mode, as it will prevent you from using random guesses. Since you cannot reuse confirmed letters in random spots, this will increase your chances of finding the repeating letter and its correct positions. However, if you are on your last few attempts and don’t want to gamble your daily streak, you can rely on hints that will give more context.
