Understanding Today's Crossword Puzzle

The clue for today's crossword puzzle is "More shy." The answer for this clue is "TIMIDER".

To understand why this answer fits the clue, let's break it down:

1. The clue "More shy" suggests that we are looking for a word that means being even shyer than something or someone else.
2. The word "shy" is an adjective that describes a person who tends to be reserved, timid, or cautious in social situations.
3. In English, we can form comparative adjectives by adding "-er" to the end of the base adjective. For example, "taller" means more tall.
4. Applying the same rule, the base word for "shy" becomes "shier" to mean more shy.
5. However, the crossword clue asks for a word that means even more shy, so we need to intensify the comparative form of "shy."
6. By adding the prefix "ti-" to the comparative form "shier," we get "timider." The prefix "ti-" adds an extra layer of intensification, making the word mean even more shy than "shier."

Putting it all together, the answer "TIMIDER" accurately reflects the clue "More shy." It is the comparative form of "shy" intensified with the prefix "ti-," correctly conveying the notion of being even shyer than something or someone else.
