Fight a spell of illness (4)

Feeling Under the Weather? This Crossword Clue Has You Covered!

Ah, the joy of a good crossword puzzle. It’s a mental workout that can keep you sharp and engaged for hours. But sometimes, even the most seasoned solver can get stumped by a particularly tricky clue. Today, we’re tackling a common clue that often throws people for a loop:

“Fight a spell of illness” (4)

.

This clue might seem straightforward at first, but there’s a little more to it than meets the eye. The wording “spell of illness” suggests something temporary, perhaps a bout of the flu or a short-lived cold. This is a great starting point, but it’s important to consider the length of the answer (4 letters) to narrow down your possibilities.

Think about the different ways to describe fighting off an illness. Do you “battle” it? “Overcome” it? Or do you perhaps “weather” it? Remember, we’re looking for a four-letter word, so be sure to keep your options concise.

Don’t give up! Take a moment to brainstorm and see if you can crack this clue. If you’re still struggling, we’ll be back with a hint and a possible solution in our next post.

In the meantime, happy solving!
