STAFF

noun /ˈstæf/

The Word, Explained

STAFF /ˈstæf/ noun

(plural staffs or staves) A long, straight, thick wooden rod or stick, especially one used to assist in walking.

"The company employed 10 new members of staff this month."

Close cousins: personnel, stave

Tricky because the repeated F trips up guesses that assume five unique letters, and with a single vowel, early guesses reveal little.
