Still unsure? The word you’re looking for is “moose.” Also known as the elk in many parts of the world (a different animal is called elk in North America), it’s the largest and heaviest species in the deer family. You’ll recognize adult male moose by their distinctive, broad antlers, which they shed and regrow annually.
Animal names aren’t usually the subjects of etymological inquiry, but we went digging to find out why moose are called that. As an answer, Britannica reports that the name is derived from the word “moosh,” which is from the Algonquian language of the Innu people of Canada, literally translated as “stripper and eater of bark.” Etymonline supplies similar info but sheds more light on the word’s origins, explaining that its roots could also possibly be from Narragansett “moos,” which traces back to Abenaki “moosu.”
Thanks to a lucky starting word, stoke, we cracked the code on the fourth try today. After guessing “probe” and “goose,” the answer was clear.
