I must have been thinking of Amazon Prime Video when I started guessing today. It was a solid opening guess! PRIME left me with just four words, but I wasn’t sure which to choose so I picked the word I wanted it to be, not the best word. Alas, it wasn’t PIXIE. I still had three words to choose from. Lucky for me, PIECE was the Wordle! Huzzah!

Today’s Wordle Etymology
The word “piece” comes from the Old French word “piece” (meaning “part, portion, or fragment”), which itself comes from Vulgar Latin“pettia” or “pettia” (also meaning a fragment or bit). The ultimate origin is uncertain, but it may be of Gaulish or Celtic origin.
