Answer

BROOM

A broom is a cleaning tool consisting of stiff fibers attached to a long handle, used for sweeping floors and other surfaces. The word comes from Old English 'brom,' which originally referred to the broom plant whose twigs were bundled together to make early sweeping tools. Beyond its practical use, the broom has become an iconic symbol in folklore, most notably as the flying vehicle of witches.

Strategy Tip

Today's word features a double letter, which can be tricky to spot. When you have most letters placed but the word still does not work, consider whether one of the letters might appear twice. Double O is actually quite common in English words.
