Wordle answer #285
LOWLY
adjective /ˈləʊli/
The Word, Explained
Not high; not elevated in place; low.
"He muttered lowly."
Tricky because the repeated L 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.
