Answer

CROSS

CROSS is a wonderfully versatile English word with multiple meanings. As a noun, it refers to the familiar shape of intersecting lines or the religious symbol of Christianity. As a verb, it means to traverse or go across something. As an adjective, particularly in British English, it describes being annoyed or upset. The word comes from Old Norse 'kross' and Latin 'crux.'

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle features a repeated letter, which can be tricky. If your guesses are showing some letters but not completing the word, consider whether any letter might appear twice. Words with double S are more common than you might think!
