This word means to respond to something that has been said or written to you. It comes from the Old French word 'replier' meaning to fold back or respond. In modern usage, it appears constantly in digital communication when we respond to emails, texts, and social media posts.

Strategy Tip

Today's word has only one vowel but four consonants, which is less common in English. If your early guesses reveal mostly consonants with limited vowels, consider words with just one or two vowels clustered together.
