FOGGY

adjective

The Word, Explained

FOGGY adjective

Obscured by mist or fog; unclear; hazy

"He was still foggy with sleep."

Tricky because the repeated G 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.
