Minute Cryptic Tips
- Look for the Definition at the Ends: The straight-up meaning (the definition) is almost always hiding right at the beginning or the very end of the clue. Try thinking of synonyms for those end words that match the answer length.
- Spot the Weird Wording: Strange phrases or awkward sentences usually signal the wordplay part (the ‘fodder’). Those are the letters or words you need to mess with according to the ‘signposts’.
- Listen for ‘Signposts’: Words like ‘mixed up,’ ‘around,’ ‘heard,’ ‘in,’ ‘short,’ ‘returns,’ ‘leaves,’ etc., are instructions telling you how to manipulate the fodder (e.g., anagrams, reversals, containers, deletions, abbreviations).
- Use Both Sides: Don’t get stuck on just the definition or just the wordplay. Got a few letters from the wordplay? See if they fit a synonym for the definition. Got an idea for the definition? See if the letters match the wordplay instructions and letter count.
- Hints Are Your Friend!: Seriously, don’t struggle forever. The hints and letter reveals are there for a reason. Sometimes seeing one letter is all it takes for the whole clue to click. It’s part of the learning process!
