Hail ___ (flag down some city transportation): 2 wds. – Cracking the Code
This week’s crossword clue has us taking to the streets (or, more accurately, the sidewalks) of a bustling city. We’re looking for a two-word phrase that describes a common way to get around urban areas. The clue’s “hail” and “flag down” tip us off that we’re dealing with public transportation.
But which mode of transit are we after? Taxis are an obvious contender, but the clue’s wording feels a bit more…general. Perhaps there’s a wider category of transportation that fits the bill.
Let’s break down the clues:
“Hail”
: This implies a quick, informal method of summoning the transport.
“Flag down”
: This reinforces the informal nature and suggests a visual signal to the driver.
“Some city transportation”
: This broadens the possibilities beyond just taxis.
So, we’re looking for a two-word phrase that describes a way to get around a city that’s quick, informal, and can be flagged down. Think about the various forms of public transportation you’ve encountered in cities, and let the clues guide you.
