Understanding Today's Crossword Puzzle

The clue "A magistrate disrobed after firstly cursing, out of hearing" leads us to the answer "ACOUSTIC". Let's break down the clue and see why this answer fits.

  1. A magistrate disrobed: This part of the clue suggests that we need to remove the outer letters of the word that represents a magistrate. The word "magistrate" can be shortened to "MAGI". When we "disrobe" this, we are left with "AGI".
  2. After firstly cursing: The word "firstly" indicates that we need to take the first letter of a word that means "cursing". The word we're looking for is "OATH". Taking the first letter of "OATH" gives us "O".
  3. Out of hearing: This tells us to remove the letters that symbolize "hearing" from a word. The word for "hearing" is "EAR", so we eliminate those letters from the word.

Combining the results of the clue analysis, we have "AGI" (disrobed magistrate), "O" (first letter of cursing), and "U" (without hearing). Putting them together, we get "ACOUSTIC" as the answer.

This clue is a great example of how crossword puzzle clues can use wordplay and clever hints to guide solvers towards the correct answer. By breaking down each part of the clue and thinking creatively, we can decipher the intended wordplay and arrive at the solution.
