Answer

WROTE

Today's word is the simple past tense of a fundamental human activity that has been practiced for thousands of years. From ancient cave paintings to modern text messages, the act of putting thoughts into written form has been central to human civilization. This particular form of the verb is irregular, changing its internal vowel rather than simply adding an ending.

Strategy Tip

Words with the common OTE pattern appear frequently in English. If you suspect a word might end this way, testing words like NOTE, VOTE, or QUOTE can help confirm or eliminate this pattern quickly.
