Not for the primary time, I am fully baffled by the reasoning right here. For these of you who’ve stumbled throughout this column for the primary time, I am primarily based within the UK – and I settle for that the cultural variations between the UK and US could clarify my incapacity to grasp what is going on on right here. Or somewhat, I will not settle for it; it should not be the case that the sport is so closely skewed in direction of one nation. Sure, the NYT is a US newspaper, however the web is worldwide and the entire Wordle phenomenon was to a big extent primarily based on the truth that it appealed to individuals in all places. This… that is simply odd.
Exhibit A: why is HOPSCOTCH right here? What does that must do with SUMMER? Does HOPSCOTCH imply one thing completely different within the US than it does within the UK? And why is ‘Beat the warmth’ the theme clue? A POPSICLE may assist you to beat the warmth, certain – and certainly that was the primary phrase I discovered. However how does CARNIVAL assist you to beat the warmth? Or CAMP? It is a bizarre mish-mash of phrases. I solved it, however I virtually want that I hadn’t.
