    1. HP indicator is normally said (short for as said).
      Is Say accepted.

      Delete
    2. Usually said, as said, reported are all given as HP indicators. I felt that the answer is cymbals from crossings. So took say as the indicator asking me to say orally and
      Put it in type. If it is wrong, some one ( may be,you) will give the correct one. Waiting!
