Today's Wordle answer June 22

Today's Wordle answer is: AWFUL.

Awful - a common, flexible, and powerful denunciation of something bad. For example: "that performance was simply awful". Or: "I really feel awful today". My condolences if you didn't quite find the Wordle answer today - it wasn't necessary a straightforward word, with the "WFU" combo in the middle. But regardless of whether you found the answer within six guesses or not, please don't ruin other players' Wordling fun by spoiling today's answer to them before they've had a chance to play. That would be a really AWFUL thing to do. Heh.

Another day, another Wordle.
