Answer

MACHO

MACHO is a word borrowed from Spanish that describes an aggressively masculine or manly demeanor. It became especially popular in American English during the 1970s, partly thanks to the Village People's hit song. The word can be used as both an adjective to describe tough, virile behavior and as a noun to describe someone who embodies these traits.

Strategy Tip

Words ending in O can be tricky in Wordle since they are less common in English. If you are stuck, try words with uncommon endings to help narrow down the final letter position.
