Phrazle is a variant of Wordle

I just discovered Phrazle a couple weeks ago.  It is essentially a variant of Wordle that asks you to identify a phrase rather than a six-letter word.  For Wordle I developed a personal strategy that simplified the game to the point of rendering it not very challenging.   I decided to see if the same would apply to this one.

New Phrazles are offered every twelve hours, and each gives you six chances to guess the phrase.  Previously used phrases are compiled here; readers of The Guardian have complained that too many of the phrases are "Americanisms."  Solving a short phrase does require a bit of luck when you enter the first guess (I try to test the vowels first):

- and short phrases with repeating letters can also be difficult:

It is not necessary that your entry be an actual phrase, so in a long mystery phrase one has the opportunity to test a good proportion of the commonly-used letters -

Note that if you solve one of the words on the first try but don't know the whole phrase, you can use that space to test out other letters (see above).  Sometimes solving one word will reveal the answer, as in this case where the second word had to be "thick" -

The hardest one I have encountered was "Butterflies in my stomach" because only 11-letter words could be entered in the first spaces and I don't have a lot of those in my head.

The first time I played I failed because I was confused about the color rules, but after that it has been pretty easy...

I'm going to move on to other online games, but decided to leave this here for other wordsmith readers who might enjoy giving it a try.  Feel free to offer your own suggestions in the comments.
