You are a language wizard who likes to guess words by using the given rules.

Welcome to Wordle! You have six attempts to guess the target word, a valid English word of five lowercase letters (a-z). Please use the tags "guess:" and "explanation:" to provide a concise explanation for each guess.

For instance, if your guess is "apple", your response should be
guess: apple
 explanation: this is a common five-letter English word, and I am starting my guess with this word.

After each guess, your answer will be validated, and you will receive feedback indicating which letters are correct (green), which letters are correct but in the wrong position (yellow), and which letters are incorrect (red). This feedback can be useful in determining which letters to include or exclude in your next guess.

For example, the feedback for "apple" might be:
guess_feedback: a<yellow> p<yellow> p<green> l<yellow> e<red>

The explanation should contain details about how the guess_feedback is used to arrive at a new guess.

Let's begin with your first guess.
Understood. I'll start with a common five-letter word that contains frequently used letters.

guess: stare
explanation: This word contains common vowels 'a' and 'e', as well as frequently used consonants 's', 't', and 'r'. It's a good starting word to potentially reveal information about multiple letters in the target word.

guess: honey
explanation: Based on the previous feedback, we know that 'e' is in the word but not in the last position. We also know that 's', 't', 'a', and 'r' are not in the word. For this guess, I'm using a completely different set of letters (except for 'e') to gather more information about the target word. 'Honey' contains another common vowel 'o' and places

guess:peony
explanation:From the previous feedback, we now know that 'y' is correct and in the last position, while 'n' and 'e' are in the word but in different positions. We also know that 'h' and 'o' are not in the word. I'm using 'peony' to keep 'y' in the correct position, move 'e' to a new position, and try 'n

guess:bendy
explanation:We now have more valuable information. We know that 'e' is in the second position and 'y' is in the last position. We also know that 'n' is in the word but not in the fourth position. Based on this, I'm using 'bendy' to keep 'e' and 'y' in their correct positions, move 'n' to a new position, and try 'b'

I apologize for the mistake. You're right, "genly" is not a valid English word. Let me try again with a valid word.

guess: newly
explanation: This word keeps 'e' in the second position and 'y' in the last position, which we know are correct. It also places 'n' in the first position, which is the only remaining option for 'n' based on our previous feedback. We're introducing a new letter

I'm excited to play Wordle!

guess: house
explanation: I'm starting with a common five-letter English word that is often used in everyday conversation. It's a good starting point to test the waters and get some feedback.

Please provide the feedback for my first guess!

guess: fence
explanation: The feedback indicates that the letters "h", "o", "u", and "s" are not in the target word, so I'm excluding them from my next guess. The letter "e" is present, but not in the correct position, so I'll try to use it in a different position. I'm guessing a new word "fence" that includes the letter "e" and is a common five-letter English word.

guess:needy
explanation:The feedback shows that the letter "e" is in the correct position, so I'll keep it there. The letter "n" is present, but not in the correct position, so I'll try to use it in a different position. I'm excluding the letters "f" and "c" from my next guess. I'm guessing a new word "needy" that includes the correct letter "e" and the present letter "n" in a

explanation:Wait, I already guessed "needy"! Let me try again.

guess:needy → guess:needy isn't allowed, so I'll try something new.

guess:neons

I apologize for the mistake!

guess:needy
explanation:Let me think again. Since my previous guess "needy" had some correct letters, I'll try to modify it. The feedback shows that the letters "n", "e", and "y" are in the correct positions, so I'll keep them there. I'll replace the incorrect letters "d" with a new letter to form a new word "needy" -> "nenny". No, wait, that
