Wordle #1,929 hints and answer for Wednesday, September 30, 2026

Edited by Tracy Bennett · 5 letters · Spoiler-free until you choose otherwise

Wednesday's Wordle runs downhill: a natural stream of water flowing toward the sea. The trap is at the edges, where the same letter opens and closes the word, with two different vowels in between.

Hints, in order

Hint 0 of 5

Tap to show one hint at a time. Stop as soon as you have enough.

Hint 1 of 5

Think of flowing water: a natural stream, bigger than a brook, running in a channel toward a lake or the sea.

Hint 2 of 5

There are two vowels, I and E. One letter repeats, and it stands at both ends of the word, first and last.

Hint 3 of 5

It is a noun for a large natural stream of water, the kind cities are built on and songs are named after.

Hint 4 of 5

It starts with R, and the second letter is I.

Hint 5 of 5

It ends with R as well: R, I, V, E, R.

The answer

This is the full solution to Wordle #1,929. Only tap if you are ready.

R
I
V
E
R
RIVER

RIVER: a large natural stream of water flowing in a channel toward the sea, a lake or another river. The trap is the repeated R: solvers who place the opening R rarely test the same letter again in the last slot, and GIVER, LIVER and DIVER all sit one letter away.
