Understanding Today's Crossword Puzzle

The clue "Depression when half the side get only 50" leads us to the answer "DELL" based on the following explanations:

  1. Depression: In this context, "depression" doesn't refer to a mental state but rather to a geographical depression, like a valley or basin.
  2. Half the side: The clue suggests taking only half of a word or term. Here, we consider the word "side" and take its first three letters, which are "SID."
  3. Get only 50: This indicates obtaining the number "50." Now, if we combine "SID" (half the word "side") and '50', it results in "SID" plus "50" equals "SID+50" or "SID50."
  4. Answer - "DELL": When we interpret "SID50" phonetically, it sounds like "DELL," which is a geographical depression or a low-lying area. Therefore, the correct answer to this crossword clue is "DELL."
