Wordle #1,936 hints and answer for Wednesday, October 7, 2026

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

Wednesday's Wordle is the word for showing something is true: what evidence does in a courtroom and what a clear example does in an argument. Two vowels, no repeats, and a crowd of close neighbours that differ by a single letter.

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 establishing that a claim is true, with evidence, facts or a convincing demonstration.

Hint 2 of 5

There are two vowels, O and E. No letter repeats.

Hint 3 of 5

It is a verb meaning to show something to be true or genuine, and its older sense of testing survives in the saying about the exception and the rule.

Hint 4 of 5

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

Hint 5 of 5

It ends with E: P, R, O, V, E.

The answer

This is the full solution to Wordle #1,936. Only tap if you are ready.

P
R
O
V
E
PROVE

PROVE: to establish the truth of something by evidence or argument. The trap is the frame: PROBE, PRONE and PROSE all share the PRO- opening and the final E, and GROVE sits one opening letter away.
