Answer

SHORE

Today's word refers to the land along the edge of a sea, lake, or other large body of water. It can be used as both a noun describing the coastline itself and as a verb meaning to support or prop up something. The word comes from Middle English and has Germanic origins, related to the Dutch word 'schoor' meaning a prop or support.

Strategy Tip

Words with common letter combinations like SH at the beginning are worth considering when you have confirmed an S. The SH blend appears in many English words, so having a go to starter that tests this combination can be valuable.
