The game was originally called Parole, but I think the author of the game tried to make it a play on words with “Wordle” to have the same “-le” sound. In Italian, this kind of word would be a neologismo. The “IT” refers to Italian to distinguish it from the English version of the game.
can you explain the etymology of the name of this game? It seems like a completely made up word? (and akward at that) grazie
