Am I the only one that thought SMITH was a very weird word? Seriously, who uses the word SMITH today?

Agree, I was surprised. I'm not sure how to use it in a sentence. After googling, I'm still not.

How do you use 'it' in a sentence? (sorry I'm not sure what the previous paragraph mention really is - as it's referring to the sentence... keeping up with the Smith's.

• Outside of the specific reasons for using "it" listed in the previous paragraph, its use is often a wasted opportunity to be more concise and accurate in your writing. Avoid ambiguity, be more concise, and use the active voice by replacing the word "it" with the subject itself.

Under a spreading chestnut-tree
⁠The village smithy stands;
The smith, a mighty man is he,
With large and sinewy hands,
And the muscles of his brawny arms
Are strong as iron bands.

Pulling up the rear. With three letters correctly placed, took me three tries to get the other two. Whew, almost bombed out with a six.

I didn't read the previous paragraph. But smith can be a noun, or a verb, if not intended to be a proper name. Not a word you'd likely ever use in conversation, but it's out there.

Four for me. Meh.

Not a very fair word today....I was very happy with a three.

I wish in WORDLE, that when a letter is in the proper place, but ALSO in another place, the letter should light up diagonally half green/half yellow.

Four this morning.

I, literally, turned a three into a four. I had the correct answer typed in on line three, but I changed it before hitting enter.

Another person with a four. Had some good words on lines two and three but still took me four.

[Sandi Bo]

A FOUR that really should have been a three (if my brain had been working).

It was verrrrry early, if that's a good excuse. For some reason I forgot about trying the E twice. Doh, I was trying anything.

And so... now that I think more on it... MANY times have said things like "Now we're word-smithing this" or "Stop word-smithing this", etc... So I sort of, can use in a sentence.

 

[VacationForever]

I always think of "smith" as a trade - "locksmith", "blacksmith", "goldsmith" etc.

Did the same darn thing!

True. You can "be" a smith, as in a trade, but to smith something is the process of exercising those skills. It's a tricky word, where what you do becomes who you are. I'm thinking of changing my last name to Overthinker. LOL!

You should be because I needed all six.

A Four turned into a Five today.
