It’s been a while since we’ve had an uncommon letter in Quordle, but we got one today in the form of the X in DETOX. That’s probably the hardest word here, although USAGE might cause a few issues too, given that U is not often seen at the start of an answer. There will be no such problems with AUDIO, with its four vowels almost certainly making it stand out early on.
