Quordle #36 (November 7, 2026): answers, best opener and a solver line
Loading the word list…
Quordle #36 was the set of 4 words for Saturday, November 7, 2026. R (4 boards), A (3 boards), O (2 boards), P (2 boards) and T (2 boards) appear in more than one answer, so a guess that places them earns colour on several boards at once. No answer repeats a letter. RELAX carries one of the rare letters J, Q, X or Z. Of five common openers, STARE leaves the smallest total field here: 96 possible answers across the 4 boards after one guess, against 167 for SLATE. A plain solver that opens with it and then always guesses the likeliest word on the tightest board finishes in 10 guesses (9 allowed).
