Wordle answer #1409

DUMMY

noun /ˈdʌmi/

The Word, Explained

DUMMY /ˈdʌmi/ noun

A silent person; a person who does not talk.

"Don't be such a dummy!"

Close cousins: dumbie, juke, mannequin, marionette

Tricky because the repeated M trips up guesses that assume five unique letters, and it leans on letters most starting words never probe, and with a single vowel, early guesses reveal little.
