Today’s Wordle Answer June 8th

The Wordle answer today is trait.

With the triple-whammy of a repeated letter that’s not a vowel or next to each other, you can be forgiven for struggling to puzzle that one out on your own. While we’ve now had 3 double letter words in a row, it’s much easier when you’re trying to guess something like a double “o” - and even then it’s never that simple.

A lot of words in English arrived at their now common definition through the process of metaphorical extension, where a word takes on new figurative meanings based on its original one. But the word trait is particularly obscure.

Arriving in English during the mid-1500s from French, trait originally meant the single lines that made up a drawing. Then over the next couple hundred years this was extended to mean the pieces that make up a person - closer to how we understand traits today.
