Answer

CATCH

This versatile word can function as both a noun and a verb, meaning to grab or capture something in motion. It comes from the Old French word 'cachier' meaning to chase or hunt. Beyond physical grabbing, it appears in many expressions like 'catch a cold' or 'catch your attention' showing how widely this word has spread through English.

Strategy Tip

Today's word contains a repeated letter, which can be tricky. When you are stuck, remember that double letters are more common than you might think, so do not assume each position has a unique letter.
