ForbesToday’s ‘Wordle’ #1393 Hints, Clues And Answer For Saturday, April 12thBy Erik Kain

Another lazy Sunday sprawls out before us in all its springtime glory. It’s one week before Easter, but we’ll pass the 1400 mark for Wordle before then. Kind of crazy to think we’ve been playing this game every day for nearly four years—though I, like most people, started several months after the game came out, just when it was going viral and just before it was scooped up by The New York Times.

Be sure to check out my weekend streaming guide also. When you’re done lazing about outside enjoying the lovely weather, and you’ve solved all the day’s puzzles, you’ll want to curl up with a good TV show or movie (or book, if you catch the reading bug—though I haven’t written a book list in awhile).

SHIRE was a decent opening word, leaving me with only one yellow box but just 82 remaining words to choose from. TOUCH slashed that number down to just one: LAUGH for the win. Bwahahahaha!

At last, I get a win. 1 point for guessing in three and another for beating the Bot. The Bot gets 0 points for guessing in four and -1 for losing ot me, which narrows the April gap to:

Erik: 4 points

Wordle Bot: 8 points

Today’s Wordle Etymology

The word "laugh" comes from Old English "hlæhhan" (also spelled hliehhan), meaning “to laugh,” which in turn comes from Proto-Germanic *hlahjan. This likely stems from the Proto-Indo-European root *klak- or *kleg-, meaning "to make a sound" or "cluck/laugh."

Cognates appear in Old Norse (hlæja), Old High German (hlahhen), and Gothic (hlahjan), all meaning "to laugh."
