Answer

SPRAY

This versatile word can function as both a noun and a verb. It describes liquid broken up into tiny droplets and dispersed through the air, or the act of doing so. The word comes from the Dutch word 'spraeyen' meaning to sprinkle, and has been used in English since the early 17th century.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle contains two consonants at the start, which is a common pattern in English. Words starting with consonant clusters like SP, ST, TR, and CR are worth keeping in mind when you have confirmed a starting consonant but need another letter beside it.
