Answer

UNCLE

This word refers to a male family member who is either the brother of your parent or the husband of your parent's sibling. The word comes from the Old French word 'oncle' which derived from Latin 'avunculus' meaning mother's brother. In American culture, Uncle Sam is a famous personification of the United States government, originating from the War of 1812.

Strategy Tip

Words starting with U are less common in Wordle, so if you have confirmed a U in your puzzle, it can significantly narrow down your options. Consider trying words with U early if your usual starters have not revealed many letters.
