Crossword Puzzle Tips and Trivia
Pay attention to plurals and tenses
If a clue has a plural noun, the clue will likely be plural as well. Similarly, if a clue is in the past tense (gave, made, etc.), the answer will also be in the past tense. It’s common to get confused if you think you know the answer but it won’t fit in the box. Try adding an “s” to the answer if it’s supposed to be the plural form of the word.
What do abbreviated clues mean?
Clues that have abbreviated words mean the answer to the clue will also be an abbreviation. For example, for the clue “Top Ten Ivy League Sch.”, the answer would likely be “PU” instead of Princeton University.
