A nice summary into how my brain is working right now (contains Wordle spoiler):

spoilerLast guess is fixer

All letters are correct except the X

My brain: "It could be a b that goes there, but fibber has two Bs"

Puts a V instead

The word was fiber. To be fair, we do spell it as fibre.

I definitely get caught out by American spellings. I managed to get it in 5

wordlewith FIVER as the fourth guess and then not even registering the X as an option for the middle letter
