Answer

WOOER

A wooer is someone who woos or courts another person, typically in a romantic context. The word derives from the Old English 'wogian' meaning to court or seek the favor of someone. While it may sound old fashioned today, it remains a perfectly valid English word that describes anyone actively pursuing a romantic interest.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle features a repeated letter, which is a double O. When you notice vowels might be clustering together, do not be afraid to try words with double vowels. Words with 'OO' are more common than you might think.
