Quordle today (game #995) - the answers

View today's Quordle answers (Image credit: Merriam-Webster) The answers to today's Quordle, game #995, are? UMBRA

BRIEF

GRAVY

TORUS Phew! This was a tough one, with a couple of fairly obscure words in UMBRA and TORUS and a couple of others that have slightly common letters in places where they often wouldn't be. GRAVY was probably the easiest, then BRIEF ? although that F at the end doesn't occur all that often. But it was the other two that will have caused most trouble. My memory isn't great, but I'm pretty sure we had UMBRA not that long ago in Quordle. It means "a conical shadow excluding all light from a given source" and is probably not a word most people use that often. TORUS is similarly obscure: "a doughnut-shaped surface generated by a circle rotated about an axis in its plane that does not intersect the circle". I'm all for less common words being in Quordle ? anyone who plays should love language, after all ? but it sure made today's game harder. How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know.
