A word that forms a compound with the word on each side — for example, WORK joins GROUND and SPACE to make GROUNDWORK and WORKSPACE, so WORK is the bridge word.
SEEKING gives you hints automatically as you play. Every wrong guess reveals a little more — the word length, impossible letters, matching letters, then the last and first letter. We never publish the daily answer. See how the hint system works →
In Wordle you guess a hidden five-letter word. In SEEKING you find the word that links two given words to make two new compound words — so it rewards lateral thinking and vocabulary rather than letter-by-letter deduction.
