NYT Wordle

Starting with "audio" and/or "smelt" can give you a few letters.

I can't see any way to select UK English.

I use "BEAUS", "TONIC" and "GLYPH" as my starters. However, if you search for the best starting combination, you'll find better (?) computer generated suggestions. I like your starters, though. They look better than mine.

I don't think Americans appreciate there is any other kind of English :)

I haven't found it an issue with five letter words; "color" I suppose.

I would like the keyboard to have a space bar. I like to visualise the word and have to use an 'X' (or something) for the unknown letters, a space would be better.
