Yours, in Tours

Answer:

ATOI

Hint:

Think of how a French speaker might sign off a letter informally, especially when written quickly or in a note.

Explanation:

This clue plays on French pronunciation and wordplay. "Yours" translates to "à toi" in French, which sounds like "A-T-O-I" when spoken aloud. The word "Tours" hints at the French language, reinforcing that the answer is a French phrase spelled out letter by letter.
