Answer

UVULA

The uvula is the small, soft tissue that hangs down from the soft palate at the back of your mouth. It comes from the Latin word 'uva' meaning grape, because of its shape. The uvula plays roles in speech, swallowing, and even helps trigger the gag reflex.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle features an uncommon letter combination with repeated vowels. When you are stuck, remember that some words use the same vowel multiple times. Words with double U are rare, but they do exist in English!
