Tending to break or separate into small, thin pieces, or informally describing a person who is unreliable or erratic in behavior.

FLAKY trips up Wordle players because the letter K is relatively uncommon, and the Y ending may lead solvers to overlook it as a candidate. The FL consonant cluster at the start can also delay identification, as many players do not prioritize guessing words that open with that combination.
