The word is included in my dictionary.
Hidden text.

on·set | ˈänˌset, ˈônˌset |
noun
the beginning of something, especially something unpleasant: the onset of winter.
• archaic a military attack.
It's helpful to work with a Wordle helper/dictionary. (The dictionary entry I refer to in the spoiler is NOT a Wordle list/dictionary)
