Quordle answers for game 1109 on a yellow background

The answers to today's Quordle, game #1109, are…

MADAM
SCAMP
FAUNA
TRACK

With every word containing an “A” I switched my second start word to STARE, which helped narrow things down a little. Having a limited number of vowels also helped bring down the number of possibilities – although I must admit it took me a bit of head scratching before I finally got FAUNA.

All in all I was pleased to finish with a line to spare.
