The clue for today's crossword puzzle is "Dodge successfully a very unfinished square" and the answer is "AVERT". Let's break down the clue to understand why this answer fits perfectly.

1. Dodge successfully: This part of the clue suggests that we need a word that means to avoid or prevent something. "Dodge" implies evading or getting away from a certain situation.
2. A very unfinished: These words indicate that the word we're looking for is missing some letters. The use of "very" emphasizes a high degree of incompleteness.
3. Square: In crosswords, "square" refers to the individual boxes where letters are placed to form words. It's a common element in crossword clues.

1. AVERT: This word represents the act of avoiding or preventing something hazardous or unwanted. It perfectly matches the meaning of "dodge successfully" in the clue.
2. A + VERT: Breaking down the word "AVERT," we can see that it consists of two parts. The letter "A" serves as the article "a," which corresponds to the word "a" in the clue. The remaining letters "VERT" form the root of the word "avert."
3. Unfinished Square: The omission of some letters creates the sense of an unfinished square. Here, the clue provides the letters "A" and "VERT," leaving room for the player to complete the word by filling in the missing letters.

Combining all the elements together, the answer "AVERT" successfully fulfills the clue's requirements. It represents the action of dodging or avoiding something, contains the provided letters, and aligns with the concept of an unfinished square in crosswords.
