Understanding Today's Crossword Puzzle

The clue "Finland, note everything's doomed from the south — or undetermined?" leads us to the answer "PUSILLANIMOUS" for several reasons:

  1. Finland: In this context, "Finland" serves as an anagram indicator. By rearranging the letters in "Finland," you can create part of the answer, "PUSILL." Anagrams are a common wordplay technique in crosswords.
  2. Note everything's doomed from the south: This part of the clue hints at the direction of the anagram. "Doomed from the south" suggests that the rearrangement involves moving letters from south to north or right to left, leading to the formation of "ANIMOUS."
  3. Or undetermined: This phrase indicates that the whole answer isn't distinctly specified, adding to the challenge of solving the clue. The word "undetermined" aligns with the idea of being hesitant or lacking courage, which relates to the final answer, "PUSILLANIMOUS."

Putting these elements together, we see that the clue cleverly combines wordplay with a subtle nod to the definition of the word itself. "PUSILLANIMOUS," meaning lacking courage or timid, emerges as the fitting solution through the cryptic construction of the clue.
