Answer

SERVE

This versatile word functions as both a noun and verb, with roots in the Latin word 'servire' meaning to be a servant or slave. In modern usage, it describes everything from delivering food to customers, to the opening shot in tennis and volleyball, to fulfilling a duty or purpose. The word carries connotations of assistance, duty, and putting things into action.

Strategy Tip

Today's puzzle contains a repeated letter, which can be tricky! When you are stuck, consider that Wordle answers sometimes use the same letter twice. Try words that test common repeated letter combinations.
