The answer
AVAIL
What avail means
To be of use or help to someone, or to make use of something that is available or offered.
Where the word comes from
From Old French *avail*, meaning "to be of worth or use," derived from the Latin *valere*, "to be strong" or "to be worth." The Latin root also gave us *valid* and *value*. The prefix *a-* in Old French came from the Latin *ad-*, meaning "to," so the original sense was "to be of worth to" or "to benefit."
