Answer

PRIOR

PRIOR is an adjective meaning existing or coming before in time, order, or importance. It comes from the Latin word 'prior' meaning former or earlier. Interestingly, a Prior is also a religious title for the head of certain monasteries or religious houses, which shares the same Latin root suggesting one who comes first in rank.

Strategy Tip

Today's word contains a repeated letter, which can be tricky. If your guesses keep coming up short, consider that one letter might appear twice. Words with double letters often trip up players who have ruled out a letter after seeing it in yellow or gray once.
