Was this a hard one?
MOUND can trip up Wordle players because of its uncommon "OU" vowel pairing in the middle, which is easy to overlook when guessing common vowel patterns. Players may also confuse it with similarly structured words likeOUND, FOUND, BOUND, or ROUND, making it harder to zero in on the correct starting letter.
