[{"data":1,"prerenderedAt":-1},["ShallowReactive",2],{"content-seo:kordle":3},{"description":4,"seo":5,"faq":8},"Daily Hangul Word Puzzle is a five-letter-style guessing game rebuilt for Korean. The answer is a four-syllable Korean word or expression — four-character idioms like 일석이조 (two birds with one stone), dishes like 김치찌개 (kimchi stew), places, loanwords and everyday phrases, about 200 in all — and you have six tries. It's made for people who read Hangul, from native speakers to learners who already know the alphabet; if you can't read Korean yet, the answers will mean little.\n\nEach syllable is scored by its parts. After you submit, a syllable shows a bar for its initial consonant, its vowel and, if your syllable has one, its final consonant (batchim): green means that jamo is in the same slot of the answer, yellow means it appears somewhere else in the answer — even in a different syllable — and gray means it isn't there. Compound vowels such as ㅘ and double finals such as ㄳ count as one unit, so ㅘ against ㅏ is simply gray. Syllables you type without a batchim show only two bars and reveal nothing about the answer's final consonants, so openers with batchim and varied vowels tell you more.\n\nBuild syllables on the on-screen dubeolsik keyboard (⇧ for ㄲ ㄸ ㅃ ㅆ ㅉ ㅒ ㅖ). On a computer you can type directly with a Korean IME or a plain QWERTY layout, which follows the standard dubeolsik key positions. Any four complete syllables are accepted as a guess, even if they don't form a real word. A new puzzle starts at midnight on your device's clock, and your stats stay in your browser. When you finish, share an emoji grid with two or three squares per syllable, or send a challenge link.\n\nThis is an independent Giggleus game. It is not affiliated with The New York Times or its Wordle game, nor with other Korean word-puzzle sites.",{"ogTitle":6,"ogDescription":7},"Daily Hangul Word Puzzle | Guess the 4-Syllable Korean Word - Giggleus","🟩🟨⬛ A daily puzzle for Hangul readers: find the 4-syllable Korean word in 6 tries, with separate hints for each initial consonant, vowel and final consonant.",[9,12,15,18],{"question":10,"answer":11},"Do I need to know Korean to play?","You need to read Hangul.
