noun /ˈɡʌli/
The Word, Explained
A trench, ravine or narrow channel which was worn by water flow, especially on a hillside.
Close cousins: gill
Tricky because the repeated L trips up guesses that assume five unique letters, and it leans on letters most starting words never probe, and with a single vowel, early guesses reveal little.
