PARCHverb
To make something extremely dry, especially through intense heat or exposure to the sun.
The relentless summer sun began to parch the cracked earth of the drought-stricken farmland.
Was this a hard one?
PARCH can be tricky for Wordle players because the uncommon consonant cluster "RCH" at the end is easy to overlook, and the starting letter "P" combined with "A" may lead solvers toward more common words like PATCH or MARCH before landing on the right answer.
