FLOOR

This word refers to the lower surface of a room that you stand on, or it can describe a level or story in a building. It can also be used as a verb meaning to knock someone down or to astonish them completely, as in 'that news really floored me.'

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle features a double letter, which can be tricky to guess. When you have confirmed letters but the word still seems incomplete, consider that one letter might appear twice. Words with double O are more common than you might think!
