Answer

DOUBT

This word comes from the Latin word 'dubitare' meaning to waver or hesitate. It can function as both a noun and a verb, describing both the feeling of uncertainty and the act of questioning something. The phrase 'beyond a reasonable doubt' is commonly used in legal contexts to describe the standard of proof required in criminal cases.

Strategy Tip

Today's word contains the letters O and U together, which is a common vowel pairing in English. When you confirm one of these vowels, try testing the other nearby. Words like CLOUD, PROUD, and SCOUT share this pattern.
