Today’s Wordle #813 Hints, Clues And Answer For Sunday, September 10th

I was feeling pretty under the weather all day Saturday, so all my big plans—the gym, house projects, etc. etc. etc.—fell by the wayside. You can’t help it when a stomach bug attacks!

In any case, these days on Sunday we take a look back in history. Today—September 10th—in history these big and important events took place:

Wordle Bot Analysis

After each Wordle I solve I head over to the Wordle Bot homepage to see how my guessing game was.

Not too shabby today, dearest Wordlers. My opening guess—court—did far better than I expected. I was left with three yellow boxes, and later learned that only ten words remained.

From here I decided to go with a ‘QU’ word just in case, and it panned out—though I was so close to getting it in two. Oh well! I was certain I knew the answer at this point and guessed quote for the win.

It was only later that I learned a second option existed: quoth. Now that would have been a tricky Wordle! quoth the raven, “Never more!”

Today’s Score

I tied the bot today so only 1 point for guessing in three. Still, a point is a point. Huzzah for me!


Today’s Wordle Etymology

The word “quote” has its origins in Middle English and Latin:

  1. Middle English: The word “quote” first appeared in Middle English in the late 14th century as “quouten” or “qwoten.” It was derived from the Old French word “coter,” which meant “to mark a book with chapter and verse numbers” or “to say, state.” In Middle English, “quote” initially referred to the action of citing or referring to a passage from a text.
  2. Latin: The Latin root of “quote” is “quotare,” which means “to count, number, or reckon.” This Latin word evolved into the Old French “coter,” which eventually gave rise to the Middle English “quote.”

Can you solve today’s phrase?

Over time, the meaning of “quote” expanded to encompass not just citing or referencing specific text passages but also the act of reproducing someone’s exact words or statements. Today, “quote” is commonly used to refer to the act of repeating or reproducing someone’s words verbatim, often with attribution to the original source.
