Word with study or city

HALL

Think of a large room often found in universities or town buildings, where gatherings or ceremonies take place.

This clue plays on the word "hall" pairing with two different words. "Study hall" is a common term for a quiet room in schools where students work, while "city hall" refers to a government building in many towns. The word "with" signals that "hall" can follow either "study" or "city" to form familiar phrases.
