Ah, the joy of a good crossword puzzle! Those moments of head-scratching frustration, followed by the triumphant “Aha!” as the right answer clicks into place. But sometimes, even the most seasoned solver can get stumped. Today’s clue has me scratching my head, and I need your help to crack it!
“Attending a subsequent assignment, perhaps (2,1,5,4)” – a cryptic clue that demands a bit of lateral thinking. The phrase “subsequent assignment” hints at something that comes after something else, but the “perhaps” suggests a possible, not definite, connection.
Let’s break down the clue:
“Attending”
suggests an action, something someone does.
“Subsequent assignment”
indicates a task or duty that comes after another.
“Perhaps”
implies a possibility, suggesting the answer isn’t directly related to the assignment itself.
“(2,1,5,4)”
gives us the answer length, broken down into four parts.
