SNIPEverb
To shoot at someone from a concealed, long-distance position, or to make a sharp, critical remark aimed at someone.
The soldier had to snipe at the enemy from behind cover to avoid being detected.
Was this a hard one?
SNIPE can be tricky because the S-N-I-P-E letter pattern is not immediately intuitive, and players may struggle to place the silent "E" at the end. It's also easy to confuse with similar words like SPINE or SWIPE, which share several letters and can lead players down the wrong path.
