Answer

CROOK

This word has dual meanings in English. As a noun, it can refer to a dishonest person or criminal, but it also describes a curved or hooked shape, like the bend in your elbow or a shepherd's curved staff. The word comes from Old Norse 'krokr' meaning hook.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle features a double letter, which can trip up many players. When you get close but something feels off, consider whether a letter might appear twice. Words with double O are more common than you might think!
