I've never studied Spanish, but I have studied other languages. Is Spanish a language in which a word can have lots of different endings depending on the grammatical context? In English, the only variations are to add an "s" to most nouns, or to add "s", "ed" or "ing" to most verbs. (With a small number of exceptions to the rule.)

All verbs are conjugated based on person and tempus. The main problem here however is that there the structure of Spanish spelling generally means a five letter word will have two or three vowels. Here I hit all the vowels with the first guess and the combination is such that many many consonant combinations will fit. I should probably guess three consonant combinations rather than trying to fill in the two consonants considering that, but it will still be rather annoying. You cannot start guessing four-consonant words to cover the consonants like you can do in English many times.

Or "y" (fish - fishy, mess - messy) and "ly" (adjective > adverb) to change the grammatical context.

You're right, I hadn't thought of changing a noun to an adjectve or an adjective to an adverb, I was thinking only of declension and conjugation.

Russian has eight or nine cases, Latin had six IIRC, Hungary concatenate words, some languages (forgotten which) conjugate by prefixes, etc. There are really many different versions of declination and conjugation. German has four declination cases which are mainly built by endings, plus three genders, also determined by the ending, and the tempi are more or less built as in English with two major cases of past perfect (weakly, resp. strongly declined). It is a mess when you look at it. No wonder English which lacks all of these became lingua franca.

However, I suppose that the Spanish Wordle uses only undeclined and unconjugated forms similar to its English version which (normally?!?) does not use the plural "s" or even the genitive "s".

Does the game allow you to use the same word twice or you actually had to come up with six distinct ones?

You can use the same word twice (think there is only one that could give the first row)

My cheat site says there are four words.

Yes, I thought I had a 3/6 and wondered why I was not able to share

I was very happy about it. I am too much of a physicist I guess.

I am a newbie here having been hooked only a couple of weeks ago. I wish to develop my own strategy for this before I compare with other strategies. I am still in the stage of development, but so far it looks good. In short, I have adopted a process of elimination. It focuses on exclusions from the list of 12972 five-letter words in "hard" mode, i.e. "Any revealed hints must be used in subsequent guesses". I will share my findings once I become convinced that the logic and procedure work. This will require some field-testing.
