Answer

SMOCK

A smock is a loose, lightweight outer garment worn to protect clothing underneath, commonly used by artists, nurses, and craftspeople. The word has roots in Old English 'smoc' which originally referred to an undergarment. Today it can describe both practical protective wear and certain styles of loose fitting dresses or tops.

Strategy Tip

Words with consonant clusters like CK at the end can be tricky. If you have confirmed a K in the final position, try pairing it with common letter combos like CK, NK, or SK to narrow down possibilities.
