Today's Wordle ------- spoilers alert!

[Sason]

this game annoyed me today.

I found the spanagram as the second word, but the game wouldn't let me select it, it kept saying it wasn't a word on the list.

It wasn't until I found the other clues that it let me pick it.  I don't know why.

Sometimes I've found a word I know has to be correct, but it doesn't turn blue or yellow. It could be because I've misspelled it; or I used the wrong form, like leaving out an s at the end. Sometimes the word I've found is part of the spangram, but there's one more word to go with it which I haven't found yet.

The groups make sense and I think if I'd known that was going to be the theme for all of them I might have gotten them. In this case, I only got the blue because I had to google lanthanum and had already noticed Los Angeles and Louisiana.
