Wordle #1,931 hints and answer for Friday, October 2, 2026

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

Friday's Wordle is the ugly side of lending: charging far too much interest on a loan. One vowel letter doing double duty, no other standard vowel at all, and a final Y.

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 lending money at a rate so high it feels like a trap: the word for that practice.

Hint 2 of 5

There is only one standard vowel letter, U, and it appears twice, in the first and third slots. The word ends in Y.

Hint 3 of 5

It is a noun for lending money at an excessive or exorbitant rate of interest, the practice behind loan sharks and predatory lenders.

Hint 4 of 5

It starts with U, and the second letter is S.

Hint 5 of 5

It ends with Y: U, S, U, R, Y.

The answer

This is the full solution to Wordle #1,931. Only tap if you are ready.

Y
USURY

USURY: the practice of lending money at an excessive rate of interest. The trap is the repeated U: find one U and most solvers stop looking for a second, yet U fills both the first and third slots.
