Answer

SNARL

Today's word can be used as both a noun and a verb. It describes the action of growling aggressively while baring teeth, typically associated with dogs and wolves, but also used to describe humans speaking in an angry or hostile manner. The word has Germanic origins and has been used in English since at least the 16th century.

Strategy Tip

Words ending in consonant clusters like RL can be tricky. If you suspect the ending might be uncommon, try a word that tests those final positions early to confirm or rule out that pattern.
