Answer

TITHE

A tithe refers to one tenth of annual produce or earnings, formerly taken as a tax for the support of the church and clergy. The word comes from the Old English word meaning tenth. Today, tithing is still practiced in many religious communities as a form of charitable giving, though it is typically voluntary rather than mandatory.

Strategy Tip

Today's word contains a double letter, which can be tricky to spot. When you have confirmed letters but the puzzle still feels stuck, consider whether one of those letters might appear twice. Words with repeated letters are often harder to crack!
