The answer

GUEST

What guest means

A person who is invited to or visiting someone's home, attending an event, or staying at a hotel or other accommodation.

Where the word comes from

From Old Norse *gestr*, meaning "guest" or "stranger," related to Old English *gæst* and Old High German *gast*. These Germanic words likely stem from Proto-Indo-European *ghos-ti-, which also produced Latin *hostis* (enemy, stranger, then host). The semantic shift from "stranger" to "invited visitor" occurred as the concept evolved in medieval Germanic societies.
