Answer

INBOX

This word is a compound of 'in' and 'box' and refers to the location in email applications where incoming messages are stored. The term became widely used with the rise of digital email in the 1990s but originally referred to physical trays on desks where incoming paper documents were placed. Today it is one of the most commonly used terms in digital communication.

Strategy Tip

Words containing the letter X can be tricky because X is relatively uncommon. If you have eliminated common letters and are stuck, consider trying words with less frequent consonants like X, Z, or Q. The letter X often appears in compound words or near the end of words.
