Quordle #1753 from Merriam-Webster is the Thursday, Nov. 12, 2026 puzzle. Every board gets a letters clue and a meaning clue. A letter-overlap count then shows which board to open first, and the answers wait at the bottom behind a spoiler warning.

Yesterday’s words are on the Quordle #1752 page. Today’s four words share few letters, and the play rules sit on the Quordle guide.

Clues for the four boards

Boards run in the order of the answer list: top left, top right, bottom left, bottom right.

Top left

  • Letters: starts with the 7th letter of the alphabet and ends with the 5th.
  • Meaning: a sphere, or a round model of the Earth that sits on a desk.

Top right

  • Letters: starts with the 13th letter and ends with the 12th.
  • Meaning: a large painting made directly on a wall.

Bottom left

  • Letters: starts with the 23rd letter and ends with the 8th.
  • Meaning: the value of something, or deserving of a particular price or praise.

Bottom right

  • Letters: starts with the 6th letter and ends with the 11th.
  • Meaning: honest and direct when speaking, even if the message is blunt.

Which Quordle board to start on today

Twenty tiles use 15 different letters, so five tiles are repeats of a letter seen on another board. That is a thin overlap. No letter sits on all four boards, and no word repeats a letter inside itself.

The top right is the only board that shares at least one letter with each of the other three. A green or yellow tile earned there is worth testing on every other board. The top left and bottom right share nothing, so what you learn on one of them says nothing about the other.

A suggested order. Open the top right. Move to the bottom right next, since it shares two letters with the top right and one with the bottom left. The bottom left comes third. Leave the top left for last: three of its five letters appear nowhere else, so it needs its own guesses.

First-guess coverage. One letter covers three boards, and three more cover two boards each. Those four letters account for 9 of the 20 tiles. A first word built from as many of them as possible, plus a vowel, tests most of the board at once. Six of the 20 tiles are vowel tiles, spread over four different vowel letters, and two words have two of them while the other two have one.
