Answer

TRIBE

This word refers to a social division in a traditional society consisting of families or communities linked by social, economic, religious, or blood ties. The term comes from the Latin word tribus, which originally referred to one of the three divisions of early Romans. Today it can also be used informally to describe any close group of friends or people with shared interests.

Strategy Tip

Words with the TR blend at the start are quite common in English. If you have confirmed a T in the first position, trying words with common consonant blends like TR, TH, or TW can help you quickly narrow down possibilities.
