Answer

ERUPT

This word comes from the Latin 'erumpere,' meaning to break out or burst forth. It describes the sudden and often violent release of something that has been contained, whether referring to a volcano spewing lava, emotions breaking through, or even skin conditions appearing suddenly. The word captures that sense of pressure building until something finally gives way.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle features common letters arranged in a less common pattern. When you have verified several common letters but cannot form a word, try rearranging them mentally or consider less obvious vowel placements. The U in this word is tucked in the middle, which can be tricky to guess.
