Today’s Wordle answer (#1599)

VENUE

“Venue” is a location where events are held—concerts, meetings, matches, weddings, and more. It fits today’s pattern with the repeated E and the “UE” ending that often narrows the field. If you circled around VALUE, VAGUE, or VERGE before landing here, you were close for good reasons: similar openings, shared letters, and common vowels.


Why “VENUE” can be tricky

  • Repeated vowels: Double E can eat up guesses if you don’t test duplicates early.
  • UE endings: They’re less common and easy to overlook without probing that slot.
  • Decoys: Words like VALUE or VAGUE share the first two letters and vowel density, pulling guesses off course.

Starter words that map well to today’s pattern

  • VENOM — quickly tests V, E, N.
  • NEVER — hits N/E frequency and checks for doubles.
  • VAUNT — probes V/A/U placement and eliminates common false trails.

Tip: If your opener reveals an E, try confirming or ruling out a second E by the third guess. Targeting “UE” as a unit can also save turns when you see U appear anywhere in your grid.


That’s it for today. If you’re practicing for tomorrow, focus on catching duplicate vowels earlier and keeping an eye on less frequent endings like “UE.”
