Why the puzzle number in the title differs
The date and number in the supplied title point to separate Wordle puzzles. The historical archive identifies January 22, 2025 as #1313, whose answer was REACH; #1678 is dated January 22, 2026, and its answer was CLINK. TechRadar’s archive distinguishes the two entries.
If you are checking an answer by date, confirm the date and puzzle number together: reused headlines or search results can pair the right date with the wrong number.
How to use the clues to solve it
Wordle gives you six guesses. Each guess’s letter feedback helps narrow later possibilities: use confirmed letters and positions, and set aside gray letters where the feedback indicates they are absent. The clues above narrow this answer to a five-letter verb with two vowels and no doubles; they do not prescribe a particular guess sequence or guarantee a solve. Yahoo Tech’s same-day guide describes the six-guess format.
