Answer

OVERT

Today's word means something done or shown openly, without any attempt at concealment. It comes from the Old French 'overt,' meaning 'open,' which itself derives from Latin 'aperire' meaning 'to open.' The word is commonly used in legal and political contexts, such as 'overt acts' in law.

Strategy Tip

When you have confirmed letters but are stuck, consider words that pair common consonants with multiple vowels in different positions. Today's answer has two vowels positioned at the start and middle, which is a common pattern worth exploring.
