Green tiles on the A and R narrow a Wordle answer to 5 letter words that start with AR, leaving the middle square as the next question.
In that square E and A lead, and ARENA and AREAS both spell the E.
The guess ARENA tests the E in third place, and AREAS never wins because Wordle answers skip plurals.
