Answer

UNCAP

This word is a verb meaning to remove a cap, lid, or cover from something. It combines the prefix UN (meaning to reverse an action) with CAP. The word is commonly used when describing opening bottles, pens, or any container with a removable top.

Strategy Tip

Words beginning with UN are fairly common in English since it is a popular prefix for reversing actions. If you have confirmed a U in position one, consider whether the word might be a UN prefix word and test for an N in position two.
