Answer

ANNEX

ANNEX can function as both a verb and a noun. As a verb, it means to append or attach, especially to incorporate territory into an existing political unit. As a noun, it refers to an addition to a building or a supplementary structure. The word comes from the Latin 'annexus' meaning joined or connected.

Strategy Tip

Today's word contains a double letter, which can trip up many players. When you see fewer unique letters appearing in your guesses than expected, consider that the answer might have repeated letters. Also, words ending in X are rare but worth keeping in mind.
