Solution to Today’s Wordle Riddle:

The riddle today is: I’m an odd number. Remove one letter from me and I become even. The number that fits this description is CRATE.

Wordle Analysis:

Every day, I analyze Wordle puzzles to help users improve their guessing strategies. Today’s Wordle had me stumped for a few tries, and I decided to verify my analysis.

  • CRATE: Removing the letter A from CRATE changes it to C R T E, which is "C retracte" or "Cree." Hmm, that doesn’t make sense. Let me think again. Wait, maybe I’m misunderstanding the clue. The clue says "remove one letter to become even." So, adding the clue behind me, if I take away a letter from CRATE and it becomes even, what number is that?

Wait, CRATE is a word that fits the clue. If I remove the Cets or something… Wait, wait. Let’s think algebraically. Which odd numbers become even when one letter is removed? Let’s list them:

  • VERY: Removing E from VERY Gives V nipple. V nipple is odd.
  • HOW: Removing Y gives HOW. Still odd.
    Wait, but CRAE might not be a word. Maybe I’m not getting it right. Let me revisit the analysis.

Wait, perhaps "CRTE" is another clue. CRTE could be read as "C rete," which, if you remove one letter, becomes "cte" or C-*-ater, which might not be the same. Alternatively, perhaps I’m overcomplicating this. Let’s look at the list of users who claimed they had the correct answer.

Fun Fact:

The word ozone comes from the Greek word "ozein," meaning "to smell." Christian Friedrich Schönbein, a German chemist, coined the term in 1871. He noticed the distinct smell produced by electrical discharges, from which the term ozone (later commerce区化) was derived.
