Answer

PLUNK

PLUNK is an onomatopoeic word that imitates the sound of something dropping into water or being set down heavily. It can function as both a verb meaning to drop or set something down abruptly, and as a noun describing the sound itself. In music, it often describes the sound of plucking a stringed instrument like a banjo or guitar.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle contains the less common letter combination of PL at the start. When you get stuck, try thinking about consonant clusters that appear at the beginning of words, as these can quickly narrow down your options.
