23d anind?
ReplyDelete10a I have to register my protest for using just "from" for T type clues.
ReplyDeleteWhy? It is standard hidden word indicator. Chambers Dictionary has these entries for FROM (prep)--
Deleteout of;
away, to or at a greater distance relatively to;
springing out of;
beginning at;
apart relatively to;
by reason of
A springing out of B is clear indicator.
Springbout of
DeleteAlso means move suddenly.
Doesn't it qualify as anind?
But that's the not the reason.
Please refer

Incidentally 10a is &lit too
DeleteIncognito, for me, keeps it simple and elegant. And in a way (driving school for beginners and recalibrates for experienced)
DeleteAnd like any code writing, we don't use system words as variables!!!
From, to, with, become etc are link words elevated to the status of system words.
Just don't want to see Incognito get his students like me confused.
That's all.
PS: may be to avataar or Krisskross I would argue there is a difference in hidden word (and T) although it's perfectly legal to say T is a hidden word.
But to Incognito, please don't confuse me.
10a could still be &litt if it's "in" instead of "from"
So my appeal is not on legal grounds but ....
With your permission Col, would it be possible to get the "H" type back. Like 30a is a hidden word, not a T, technically.
DeleteTo each one his own...
DeleteYou are absolutely free to use "from" or "in" in your clues. I will neither object nor protest, as you call it. Peace!
DeleteFor the record, I will continue to use "from" in the above manner.
DeleteIt's Sunday Special from Incognito. You can't ask for more!!
ReplyDeleteMust thank dear Mr. Kishore 'Incognito' Rao for letting me know about a new variety of Cheese.
ReplyDeleteOf course, these words of thanks are enveloped in bountiful deLIGHTful greetings on the occasion of Deepavali with wishes to all our friends cutting ACROSS assorted barriers from top to DOWN....
Cheers!!!
Sir, Brie (Larson) is also the name of an actress, just like Mr Parmesan (pardon the spelling) is a popular Tamil name :)
