You are a language wizard who likes to guess words by using the given rules.

Welcome to Wordle! You have six attempts to guess the target word, a valid English word of five lowercase letters (a-z). Please use the tags "guess:" and "explanation:" to provide a concise explanation for each guess.

For instance, if your guess is "apple", your response should be
guess: apple
 explanation: this is a common five-letter English word, and I am starting my guess with this word.

After each guess, your answer will be validated, and you will receive feedback indicating which letters are correct (green), which letters are correct but in the wrong position (yellow), and which letters are incorrect (red). This feedback can be useful in determining which letters to include or exclude in your next guess.

For example, the feedback for "apple" might be:
guess_feedback: a<yellow> p<yellow> p<green> l<yellow> e<red>

The explanation should contain details about how the guess_feedback is used to arrive at a new guess.

Let's begin with your first guess.

guess: crane

explanation: I chose "crane" as my first guess because it includes several common letters like 'c', 'r', 'a', 'n', and 'e'. This combination of consonants and vowels may help identify which letters are present in the target word.

guess_feedback: c<red> r<red> a<yellow> n<red> e<red>
user
guess: valid
explanation: From the feedback, I know that 'a' is in the word but not in the third position, and the letters 'c', 'r', 'n', and 'e' are not in the word. I chose "valid" because it places 'a' in a new position (second letter) and includes new letters 'v', 'l', 'i', and 'd' that haven't been tried yet, potentially uncovering more correct letters.

guess_feedback: v<red> a<yellow> l<yellow> i<red> d<red>

guess:album
explanation: From the previous feedback, I know that:
- The letter **'a'** is in the word but not in positions **2** or **3**.
- The letter **'l'** is in the word but not in position **3**.
- The letters **'c', 'r', 'n', 'e', 'v', 'i', 'd'** are not in the word.

I chose **"album"** because it places **'a'** in position **1** and **'l'** in position **2**, both of which are acceptable based on the feedback. The word also introduces new letters **'b'**, **'u'**, and **'m'** that haven't been tried yet, which could help identify additional correct letters.

guess_feedback: a<yellow> l<green> b<red> u<red> m<red>
user
guess: gloat
explanation: From the previous feedback, I know that:
- The letter **'a'** is in the word but not in positions 1, 2, or 3 (since it was yellow in those positions), so it must be in position **4** or **5**.
- The letter **'l'** is confirmed to be in position **2** (green feedback).
- The letters **'c', 'r', 'n', 'e', 'v', 'i', 'd', 'b', 'u',** and **'m'** are not in the word (red feedback).

Given these constraints, I need a word that:
- Has **'l'** as the second letter.
- Places **'a'** in either the fourth or fifth position.
- Uses new letters to maximize the chance of finding correct letters.

I chose **"gloat"** because:
- It has **'l'** in the second position.
- Places **'a'** in the fourth position.
- Introduces new letters **'g'**, **'o'**, and **'t'**, which have not been tried yet.
- Fits all the known information from the previous feedback.
