ELFINadjective
resembling or characteristic of an elf; small, delicate, and having a mischievous or magical quality.
She had an elfin face framed by short dark hair, with bright eyes that gave her a mischievous look.
Was this a hard one?
ELFIN trips up Wordle players because it contains both an F and two uncommon letters in combination, making it easy to overlook as a candidate. The LF pairing is relatively rare in five-letter words, and players may not think of this adjective form when brainstorming elf-related words.
