Wordle Answer for 22 September 2026
Today’s Wordle answer is STOKE.
Stoke means to add fuel to a fire to keep it burning, or figuratively to encourage and intensify a feeling — you might “stoke” a debate, a rivalry, or someone’s enthusiasm. The word traces back to the Middle Dutch stoken, meaning “to poke or thrust,” which evolved into the English sense of tending a fire. It’s also the name of the English city Stoke-on-Trent, though that’s unrelated to today’s puzzle.
How Did We Do Today?
Puzzle #1921 sits at a moderate difficulty — the double-meaning clue (literal fire vs figurative excitement) trips up players who lock onto the wrong definition early, but the letter pattern is fairly forgiving for common starting words.
