Wordle players faced puzzle number 1,922 on Wednesday, a five-letter word centered on the idea of moving onward that split solvers between two very different mental categories, with some thinking of air travel or geometry before landing on the word's actual meaning.

For those still working through the puzzle, several hints circulated Wednesday to help point solvers toward the answer without giving it away directly. The word refers to moving onward or forward in time, place or order, or to putting something into view or bringing it out into consideration. It rhymes with words like "north," "fourth" and "swarth," and it commonly appears in familiar English phrases such as "back and forth," "and so forth," and "bring forth." Functionally, the word serves as an adverb or preposition, and it can act as a synonym or close descriptor for "forward," "ahead" or "onward." Structurally, it contains one vowel and four consonants, includes no repeated letters, and begins with the letter F.
