Answer

CURLY

This adjective describes something that forms curves or spirals, most commonly used when talking about hair texture. The word comes from the verb 'curl' with the suffix 'y' added to create an adjective form. It can also describe anything with a wavy, twisted, or spiral shape, from pasta to decorative ironwork.

Strategy Tip

Today's word uses Y as its only vowel, which is actually more common than you might think. When you are stuck, remember that Y can function as a vowel, especially at the end of words. Consider trying words ending in LY or RY to test this pattern.
