Answer

WHISK

This word can be both a noun and a verb. As a noun, it refers to a kitchen utensil made of wire loops used for beating eggs or mixing ingredients. As a verb, it means to beat or stir something rapidly, incorporating air into the mixture. The word likely comes from Scandinavian origins, related to swift sweeping motions.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle features the WH combination at the start, which is less common in Wordle answers. If you are stuck, try thinking of words with consonant clusters at the beginning. The SK ending is also worth keeping in mind as it appears in several English words.
