Sally? Also not big on Abled being a word either (Discord doesn’t even like it…getting red squiggly line).

Had to go with my 3rd “start word” after I solved Alive, and once again, it helped (as it did in Wordle today too).

I only know modal from programming, where a modal window won’t let you interact with the rest of the program until you close it. Is modal a word people use in everyday speech?

@chiliwillybing me either with Modal not being in my vocab ever.

I had Modal, Nodal and Doula, and felt Doula was much more likely, and or more common. I should know by now that Quordle/Sequence doesn’t “think” that way, but still would have gone with Doula regardless.
