EDITOR'S NOTE: This article is for Wordle answer #582; the January 23rd Wordle answer is available now.
Sunday. January 22nd has a brand new Wordle word ready to be solved and today's answer shouldn't be too difficult for most players. Wordle is the once-a-day word guessing game that has been going strong for over a year now since it broke its way into people's hearts and social media timelines in late 2020.
One of the reasons for its success can be attributed to the simplicity of the gameplay. A single word needs to be solved every day within six guesses and the game uses the old classic game of Mastermind to give clues as to the correct letters. Wordle also has a Hard Mode that can be activated in the options menu which increases the difficulty just a bit for more dedicated fans of the game.

Today's Wordle Answer (January 22nd #582)
The January 22nd Wordle answer is MATEY.
Not too much trouble for our game today as we used the starting Wordle word IRATE. This led to quite a few hints with the incorrect locations of 'A','T', and 'E'. Switching them around a bit our second guess was TAPED which didn't add any new letters to the mix but locked in the two vowels.
Doing a bit more shuffling our third attempt was MATES, this locked in most of the word and added the correctly placed 'M' which helped our final guess, MATEY. Another Wordle win-in-four for the week and another tick on our long-standing win streak.
