Wordle Answer for May 5, 2023

What below means

Lower in position, rank, amount, or status than something else, or beneath it in physical space.

Where the word comes from

From Middle English "bilowe," combining the prefix "be-" (by, near) with "lowe," an old word meaning low or flame. The "be-" prefix intensified the sense of being situated at a low place or position, eventually settling into its modern meaning of "at a lower level than" or "beneath."
