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.

 To help you make an informed guess, you will receive a clue for the word, such as
clue: snowy white.

Here is an example guess based on the clue:
guess: apple
explanation: In the fairy tail Snow White, the girl is killed because she eats a poisoned apple. And the word apple has 5 letters.

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 both the guess_feedback and clue work together in tandem to formulate a new guess.

Let's begin with your first guess.
clue:crow

user
guess: raven

explanation: "Raven" is a five-letter word that refers to a bird similar to a crow. Both are black birds from the same family, so it fits the clue.

user
guess:black
explanation:"Black" is a five-letter word associated with a crow, as crows are black birds. It contains the letter 'a' (not in the second position), and it doesn't include any of the incorrect letters from the previous feedback (r, v, e, n).

guess_feedback: b<red> l<green> a<yellow> c<red> k<red>
user
guess: aloft
explanation:"Aloft" is a five-letter word meaning up in the air, which is where a crow would be found flying. This fits the clue "crow." According to the feedback:

- The letter **'a'** is in the word but not in positions 2 or 3 (from previous guesses), so placing it in position 1 works.
- **'l'** is confirmed to be in position 2.
- The letters **'o'**, **'f'**, and **'t'** have not been ruled out and do not conflict with any previous feedback.
- It doesn't include any of the incorrect letters: **r**, **v**, **e**, **n**, **b**, **c**, **k**.

Therefore, "aloft" aligns with both the clue and the feedback received so far.

user
guess:gloat
explanation:
Based on the feedback:

- The second letter is **'l'** (green in **'black'** and **'aloft'**).
- The third letter is **'o'** (green in **'aloft'**).
- The fifth letter is **'t'** (green in **'aloft'**).
- The letter **'a'** is in the word but not in positions 1, 2, or 3 (yellow in **'raven'**, **'black'**, and **'aloft'**), so it must be in position 4.
- The letters **r**, **v**, **e**, **n**, **b**, **c**, **k**, and **f** are not in the word (all red in previous guesses).

This means the word fits the pattern **\* l o a t**.

The only common English word that fits this pattern is **'gloat'**.

Furthermore, **'gloat'** means to boast or *crow* about something, which aligns with the clue **"crow"**.
