Answer

BRAVO

This word comes directly from Italian, where it means 'brave' or 'bold.' It entered English as an exclamation of approval, particularly in artistic contexts like opera and theater. The word is also famously used in the NATO phonetic alphabet to represent the letter B, making it recognizable even to those unfamiliar with its Italian origins.

Strategy Tip

Words borrowed from other languages, especially Italian and Spanish, often end in O or A. If you have confirmed a word ends in O, consider trying words with Mediterranean origins as they frequently appear in English vocabulary.
