A new week has officially begun, which means there's a brand new Lewdle puzzle to be solved on Monday, May 16.

Wordle spin-offs such as Lewdle, Heardle, and Nerdle continue to be the talk of the internet. Many players around the world enjoy starting their day with a new brain teaser, but it's not always as simple as it seems.

For those unaware, Lewdle was designed as a 'clone' of Wordle, but with an added twist. The key difference between the two games is that Lewdle only consists of inappropriate words, meaning this isn't a game for the faint-hearted.
