It's been a good few days for my usual starter word, which often means there will be some rough ones ahead!

I was surprised that my second guess, ONSEN, was accepted by Wordle, but I guess it's considered a loanword. It's not listed in most of the online dictionaries I consult regularly, although Collins marks it as a "new word suggestion".

It certainly is not a word I would have considered as a valid word!

Onsen's have become pretty popular at travel destinations. The wordle list has changed since the NYT acquired it. I believe there are 2,309 potential solutions bu there are approximately 12,966 in the Wordle 'dictionary' (potential words that may not be solutions).
