A demanding clue may suggest several meanings or synonyms. First record letters confirmed by crossings and try answers with the correct length. Check that each word also answers the full meaning of its clue.

What to check

A letter supplied by an uncertain answer is still provisional. If an area will not resolve, revisit its crossings before searching for increasingly obscure words. Consistency between clues determines the fit.

Check the form of the answer

Check singular or plural and letter count as well as meaning. Follow the activity’s convention for spaces, accents and other marks. When an answer will not fit, check its crossings too: the difficult clue may not be where the mistake began.
