Word Info

???? Definitions

Noun (Architecture): An entrance hall, corridor, or vestibule inside a building — especially the main hall of a hotel, theatre, or public building
Noun (Politics): A group of people seeking to influence legislators on behalf of a particular interest
Verb: To seek to influence a politician or public official on an issue

???? Word Notes

Letters: L · O · B · B · Y (5 letters)
Pattern: Consonant – Vowel – B – B – Consonant
Repeated letter: B appears twice (pos 3 & 4)
Vowel count: 1 (only O in position 2)
Difficulty: Medium — double B is the key trap

Strategy Tips

Improve your streak

???? Watch for Double Letters Today’s answer has back-to-back identical consonants in positions 3 & 4. If a letter shows yellow, it might appear twice — try placing it in both spots.

???? Single-Vowel Words Words with just one vowel are rare but powerful deduction tools. If your opener reveals most vowels absent, pivot to single-vowel candidates like GLYPH, LYMPH, or CRYPT.

???? Strong Openers CRANE, STARE, AUDIO or SLATE cover the most common letters. Eliminating E, A, R, S, T early leaves a cleaner path to uncommon patterns like L-O-B-B-Y.

The Answer

LOBBY

Noun / Verb · 5 letters · 1 vowel · Double B

An entrance hall or reception area in a building — or the act of influencing legislators on behalf of a cause. The double B in positions 3 & 4 makes this a trickier-than-average Wordle answer.

???? Hotel lobby

???? Theatre foyer

????️ Political lobbying

???? Building entrance

???? Lobby group
