Answer

LEAVE

This versatile word can function as both a verb meaning to go away from a place or person, and a noun referring to permission to be absent, especially from work. The word comes from Old English and has been part of our language for centuries. Interestingly, it connects to the word for those flat green things on plants and trees, which share the same spelling in plural form.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle contains a repeated vowel, which can be tricky to spot. When you see multiple vowels confirmed but your guesses still seem off, consider that one vowel might appear twice in the word.
