Answer

DIARY

A diary is a book in which one keeps a daily record of events, experiences, and personal thoughts. The word comes from the Latin word 'diarium' meaning daily allowance or journal, derived from 'dies' meaning day. Diaries have been kept for centuries and provide historians with invaluable firsthand accounts of past events.

Strategy Tip

Today's word contains the letter Y at the end, which is a common pattern in five letter words. When you are stuck, remember that Y often appears as the final letter and can function as a vowel, especially in words with limited vowel count elsewhere.
