Answer

PRONG

A prong is a pointed or projecting part, especially one of the tines of a fork or a sharp point on an antler. The word comes from Middle Low German and has been used in English since the 15th century. You often hear it in the phrase 'two pronged approach' meaning a strategy with multiple angles.

Strategy Tip

Today's word uses the PR consonant blend at the start. When you identify consonant clusters early in your solving, it can help narrow down possibilities quickly. Consider trying words with common blends like PR, TR, or CR in your guesses.
