Answer

JOLLY

Today's word means full of high spirits and good humor. It comes from the Old French word 'jolif' meaning festive or merry, which itself may have Norse origins. The word is commonly associated with Christmas celebrations, particularly in phrases like 'a jolly old fellow' when describing Santa Claus.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle features a double letter, which can trip up many players. When you get close but something feels off, consider that a letter might appear twice. Words with double L are more common than you might think in English.
