Wordle in Spanish: daily Spanish word games

Several sites publish a Spanish Wordle: one hidden five-letter word a day in six tries. La Palabra del Día is the standalone version, and the newspapers El Mundo in Spain and La Nación in Argentina run their own. The same papers also make Spanish versions of other daily word formats, from honeycomb word builders to group-sorting puzzles.

The games

Start with La Palabra del Día, a free Spanish Wordle with one five-letter word a day and six tries. It adds extra daily modes, one with accented words and one with a science word. El Mundo's Palabro is the Madrid daily's take, with an archive of past days, and La Nación's Palabra Oculta from Buenos Aires offers three difficulty levels each day. Between them you get Spain's and Argentina's Spanish, which sometimes differ in vocabulary.

If you play the New York Times games in English, most have a Spanish counterpart. La Nación's Panal de Letras and El Mundo's Letrerío are Spelling Bee style: make words from seven letters, always using the centre one. Nexos from La Nación sorts sixteen Spanish words into four groups, like Connections, and Conexo does the same in Spanish, Portuguese or English. Entre Letras is La Nación's themed letter grid in the style of Strands, and Combinadas slides columns of letters to spell words.

For a guessing game by meaning rather than spelling, Contexto has a Spanish edition where each guess is ranked by how close it is to the secret word.

If you are learning Spanish, Palabra Oculta's easy level and the honeycomb games are the gentlest start; native speakers can try all three Wordle versions each morning.
