Answer

GIRTH

This word refers to the measurement around something, particularly around a person's waist or the trunk of a tree. It comes from Old Norse 'gjorth' meaning a belt or girdle. The term is commonly used in tailoring, horseback riding when referring to saddle straps, and forestry when measuring trees.

Strategy Tip

Words with consonant clusters like TH at the end can be tricky. If you suspect a word ends in TH, try words with common endings early to confirm or eliminate this pattern.
