Answer

BERTH

Today's word has two main meanings in nautical contexts. It can refer to a built in bed or bunk on a ship, train, or other vehicle, or it can mean a designated space at a wharf where a ship moors. The word likely comes from the nautical sense of having enough room to maneuver, related to giving something a wide berth meaning keeping a safe distance.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle contains the TH combination at the end, which is quite common in English. If you spot that pattern early through your guesses, you can often narrow down possibilities quickly by testing words ending in TH.
