The answer
TENTH
What tenth means
The ordinal number matching the position or rank of 10 in a sequence, or one of ten equal parts into which something is divided.
Where the word comes from
From Old English "tēoða," the ordinal form of "ten." It descends through Proto-Germanic "tehunōn" from the same ancient root that gave us "ten" itself. The suffix "-th" transforms the cardinal number into its ordinal counterpart, a pattern shared across Germanic languages and ultimately traceable to Indo-European numerical roots.
