Answer

RUMBA

The rumba is a ballroom dance of Cuban origin that features rhythmic hip movements and a distinct pattern of steps. It developed in the early 20th century and became popular in the United States during the 1930s. The word comes from Spanish and is associated with Afro Cuban musical traditions and celebration.

Strategy Tip

Words ending in A can be tricky because they often come from other languages. When you suspect a borrowed word, think about common Spanish or Italian endings. The letter combination MB appearing together is relatively uncommon in English, so testing for unusual consonant pairings can help narrow things down.
