Answer

APRON

An apron is a protective garment worn over the front of clothing, typically tied at the waist and sometimes around the neck. The word comes from the Old French word naperon, meaning a small tablecloth. Interestingly, the initial n was lost over time through a linguistic process called misdivision, where a napron became an apron.

Strategy Tip

Today's word has two vowels spread nicely through it, including an A at the start. If your opening guess confirms an A, try positioning it at the beginning of your next attempt since many English words begin with vowels.
