By way of background: Wordlewas originally created by former Reddit engineer Josh Wardle and went super-viral in late 2021, becoming a daily habit for players around the globe. The game was bought by the New York Timesearlier this year, and is now run by the paper's puzzles and games team.

Why are there two different Wordle answers some days?
Half the fun of Wordleis that everyone gets the same word to guess every day — but occasionally two different answers can be correct. This is due to changes the New York Timesmade after acquiring the game. Just last week, a word was swapped out because it was unexpectedly topical. Make sure you refresh your browser before you play each day.
And now, a hint for today’s Wordle…
You are one! (It's a noun, and also a verb.)
Today’s 5-letter word starts with…
Bzzz bzz bzz... it's the letter B.
