Answer

WAKEN

This word is a verb meaning to emerge or cause someone to emerge from sleep, or more figuratively, to become alert or aware of something. It comes from Old English roots and shares its origin with the word wake. The word can be used both transitively, meaning to wake someone else, and intransitively, meaning to wake up yourself.

Strategy Tip

Words ending in EN are fairly common in English, so if you have confirmed an N in the final position, try cycling through common EN ending patterns. Also, do not overlook the letter K, which appears less frequently but shows up in everyday words like this one.
