Answer

BLURT

To blurt means to say something suddenly and without careful consideration, typically because of excitement or carelessness. The word emerged in the late 16th century and is often used with the word out, as in blurt out a secret. It captures that moment when words escape your mouth before your brain has a chance to filter them.

Strategy Tip
