Answer

BRINK

Brink refers to the extreme edge of something, especially when it implies danger or a critical point of change. The word comes from Middle English and is related to Scandinavian words meaning a grassy slope or hillside. It is most commonly used in phrases like 'on the brink of' to describe being very close to experiencing something significant, whether positive or negative.

Strategy Tip

Today's word contains the letter combination NK at the end, which is actually quite common in English five letter words. Words like THINK, DRINK, and BLINK share this pattern. If you spot an N in your guesses, trying K as the following letter can be a smart move.
