right here<\/a>. <\/p>\nCHORE was almost as lucky as BEARD was yesterday, leaving me with just 12 remaining possible solutions. I came up with a few, and COVEN just stuck out at me because I\u2019ve been thinking about fall and about Halloween and I figured at least it would knock out a few other words. Lucky for me, it was the Wordle!<\/p>\n

The word coven comes from Middle English covent (meaning \u201cassembly\u201d or \u201cagreement\u201d), which itself comes from Old French covent or couvent (\u201cassembly, convent\u201d), from Latin conventus (\u201cmeeting, gathering\u201d), the past participle of conven\u012bre (\u201cto come together, convene\u201d). Its association with witches\u2019 gatherings developed later, around the 17th century, influenced by its use for monastic convents or assemblies.<\/p>\n
