Here, the index seems to say one thing, but with a slight change of view, it says another. For example: gives undermined, which means (enigmatic at least) „damaged“ and can be found as part of „Found ermine deer“. The word „hidden“ is used to mean „contains,“ but in the sense of the surface proposes „Pelts.“ One complication is that „damaged“ often (but not in this indication) means „reorganizing letters.“ The first letters from part of the index are collected to give the answer. The answer to this note is ROTTEN. The phrase „turn around“ means „turn around,“ and „part of“ indicates a piece of „torrid Internet.“ This fills the `bed`. the definition of the index, but as read is clearly a cryptic indication. Another example: the answer is ODIN. The Nordic God Odin is hidden in „God incarnate,“ as understood by „essentially,“ but Odin`s definition is also the whole indication, since Odin is essentially an incarnate God. The form of including the bank in letters consists of a shorter word (or word) that does not contain repeated letters (an „isogram“) and a longer word or expression that has been created at least once with each of these letters (but not others), but repeats it as often as necessary. This kind of clue has been described by American designers Joshua Kosman and Henri Picciotto, who write the weekly puzzle for The Nation. The shorter word is usually at least three or four letters, while the target word or term is at least three letters more than the word bank. For example, the four letters of the word TENS can be used as a bank to form the word TENNESSEE. Typically, the label contains indicator words such as „use,“ „take“ or „implement“ to signal that a bank is being used.
This type of index is common in British and Canadian crypts, but is somewhat less common in American crypts; in American crossword puzzles, an index like this is generally considered a punny clue. This is almost certainly the oldest type of cryptic index: cryptic definitions appeared in the enigmas of British newspapers in the late 1920s and early 1930s, which mixed cryptic and clear terms and became completely cryptic crossword puzzles. On the back of the Daily Telegraph, Monday, March 15, 2017, 7 below, is „Banish Spirits with zero ice setting imbibing times (8)“; the answer is EXORCIZE: it means „banner spirit“ and is rearranged „zero ice,“ including „x“ (described as „time“). The word „install“ indicates an anagram and the word „imbibing“ on an insertion. Fortnightly Weekend Quick Cryptic. This time, it`s my turn to offer cross-shaped entertainment.
