Answer

PLAIT

A plait is an interlaced structure formed by weaving together three or more strands, most commonly used to describe a type of braided hairstyle. The word comes from the Old French 'pleit' meaning fold or pleat. While Americans typically say 'braid,' the term plait remains common in British English and is often used for more traditional or formal styles.

Strategy Tip

Today's word contains a common consonant blend at the start that appears in many English words. If you are stuck, try words that begin with PL as this combination is found in everyday words like PLACE, PLANT, and PLAIN.
