Wordle answer #655
SMASH
noun /smæʃ/
The Word, Explained
The sound of a violent impact; a violent striking together.
"I could hear the screech of the brakes, then the horrible smash of cars colliding."
Close cousins: crash, shatter, dash, slaughter
Tricky because the repeated S trips up guesses that assume five unique letters, and with a single vowel, early guesses reveal little.
