Wordle 268 Answer For March 14: The Wordle word of the day is an interesting once. Though some players are finding the puzzle hard to crack today, the word is a common one, especially in British English. 

The puzzle has of late got easier to crack, after The New York Times was accused of making it harder after byuing the free-to-play game from Josh Wardle, the US-based software engineer who created it last year.

The Wordle rules are simple. A player gets six chances to guess a five-letter randomly generated word, with coloured squares giving crucial clues.

If the box turns green after you choose a word, it means the correct letter in the right position. A yellow box means the letter is correct but at the wrong place. Grey squares denote wrong letters.

The Wordle word of the day today, i.e. March 14, should not be difficult to crack if you focus a bit. While many found it tough, others were found celebrating after they actually cracked it. Some said they didn't know the word or use it in their daily parlance.  

I had a wonderful anniversary of birth. Thanks for the well wishes & gifts 💕 The pancakes were absolutely delicious!🤤
