If you’re here, I’m guessing you’ve either cracked today’s Wordle and want to see if you were right — or you’ve hit that stubborn wall where nothing seems to fit. Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered. As someone who’s been playing and covering Wordle since its early days, I know exactly how satisfying it feels to nail the answer in just a few tries. And yes, I’m just as excited to help you keep your streak alive!

Why Wordle Still Has Us Hooked in 2025

It’s wild to think that what started as Josh Wardle’s thoughtful gift for his partner has now become a daily ritual for millions. Since the New York Times picked it up, Wordle has gone from a cozy little internet gem to a pop‑culture phenomenon. From casual morning coffee players to TikTokers livestreaming their guesses, the game’s simple 5‑letter puzzle has somehow managed to keep the world talking every single day.

You and I both know it’s not just about guessing a word — it’s the mind game. That moment you stare at the tiles, weighing every vowel and consonant, hoping you’re one step ahead of the puzzle.

Let’s Talk Strategy Before the Spoilers

I always recommend starting with a word that gives you maximum letter coverage — think two vowels and a few common consonants like S, T, R, N. The idea is to quickly narrow down possible letters while ruling out unhelpful ones. And if you really want to test yourself, Hard Mode forces you to stick to the confirmed hints you’ve already uncovered.

But hey, today’s Wordle (#1508) has a little twist that makes it both fun and slightly tricky — and I’m about to give you a few gentle nudges so you can still guess it without having the answer handed to you.

Wordle #1508 Hints for Tuesday, August 5, 2025

📝 Hint 1: It’s a 5‑letter word.
🔤 Hint 2: The first letter is “S”.
🅰 Hint 3: There’s only one vowel in the whole word.
❌ Hint 4: No letters repeat.
🐦 Hint 5: It’s a bird often linked to the arrival of newborn babies.

Stop right here if you want to guess it yourself — because in the next section, I’ll be revealing the answer and breaking down exactly why it fits these clues so perfectly.

🟩 The Wordle #1508 Answer for August 5, 2025

Alright, time’s up for guesses. Today’s winning word is… STORK.

The moment you see it, everything clicks — the “S” opener, the single vowel “O,” the clean no‑repeat letter set, and of course, the bird clue. Culturally, storks have long been tied to the idea of delivering babies (thank you, old folklore and cartoons), which made that final hint a big giveaway for some of you.

For me, getting to “STORK” was a satisfying journey. After ruling out common vowel‑heavy words early, I landed on a few possible birds, and once the “K” locked in, there was no going back.

📅 Yesterday’s Wordle and Recent Answers

🧠 Strategies to Keep Your Winning Streak Alive

Want to consistently land your Wordle in 3–4 tries? Here’s my personal formula:

Start Broad: Pick a starting word with at least two vowels and strong consonants — for example, SLATE, CRANE, or AUDIO.
Observe Patterns: Notice if your first guess reveals a rare consonant like “K” or “V”; that’s a strong directional clue.
Eliminate Aggressively: Your second guess should target letters you haven’t tried yet while keeping the confirmed ones in place.
Think Contextually: If a hint says “it’s an animal” or “linked to babies,” connect the letter clues to that category.
Hard Mode Practice: Even if you don’t always play in Hard Mode, try it occasionally to sharpen your logical discipline.
