GUNKYadjective
Covered in or resembling gunky substance; dirty, sticky, or messy in an unpleasant way.
After changing the oil, his hands were completely gunky and took several washes to clean.
Was this a hard one?
GUNKY is tricky for Wordle players because it contains the uncommon letter K alongside the rare combination of G, U, and Y in a single five-letter word. The UN- opening may lead players toward more common words, and the -KY ending, while logical, is easy to overlook.
