"Another silly word. Wordle 571 4/6," said one frustrated player. "Wordle 571 3/6* Not very common today! Good luck everyone!" said another.
Others claimed that it was certainly not a word they'd use, "Wordle 571 4/6 Only got this through process of elimination. Not a word I’d use."

Sedan Meaning
Many players struggled with this challenge because they were simply unfamiliar with this term. The word is not particularly common in everyday life, so what does the word sedan mean?
The Cambridge dictionary defines the word 'sedan' as a noun that means, 'a car with seats for four or five people, two or four doors, and a separate area in the back for bags, boxes, and suitcases.'
A key problem for some players solving this word is that 'sedan' is more common in American English. In British English, people are far more likely to describe the same car as 'saloon.' The words saloon and sedan are interchangeable and describe the same type of car.
If you struggled to solve this Wordle challenge, don't worry, you are not alone! This was a particularly tough challenge that stumped a lot of players. However, if you want to improve at this game, there are a number of Wordle hacks and Wordle tricks, that may help.
