Today’s Wordle Answer June 7th

The Wordle answer today is flood.

Double letter words are always tricky to guess, especially when paired with the uncommon juxtaposition of “f” and “l”, so it would have been very easy to run out of guesses very quickly with this puzzle.

Obviously, humans have been dealing with floods for thousands of years, so as you might expect the word “flood” has roots in both early Old English as well as Proto-Germanic, the theoretical language that preceded English, Dutch, German, the Scandinavian languages and others.

However, like most words we use metaphorically today, there was a gap of hundreds of years between the first recorded use of flood referring to the physical phenomenon - which was before 1100 - and the figurative use meaning “lots of”, which wasn’t until the 1300s.
