Can you complete this grid of letters?
Each line is a valid 5-letter word with its first and last letters missing.
The missing letters form a word when read downwards, and the same word appears both at the start and at the end.
What is the missing word?
| I | N | E | ||
| R | O | D | ||
| Y | L | O | ||
| O | A | S | ||
| E | A | T |
Note: this puzzle is not interactive, and the squares cannot be clicked.
