Crossword Puzzles
how do you solve the complicated crossword puzzles?

especially the ones with clues that make no sense and sound like random words put together?

A cryptic clue has a synonymic word or phrase at one end and a way of arriving at the answer on the other. The problem is that You Don‘t know which end is which. Example: “Author in prison.” The answer is pen(itentiary), which is a verbal form of “author.” Another example which has the defining word at the end is:”Hoffman dumps in powder.” The answer is “Dust(in)”
The better the puzzle setter is, the more normal the clue will look. However, when you see something that really does look crazy, look for anagrams. Example: “Pops concert’s opener also jazzy.” Here, the defining word is “Pops”. “concert’s” opener is the letter “c”, and a jazzy version of “also” is “olas” – “Colas.”
Clues that end with ! or ? do not follow the rules given above. Example: “Timid dreamer is handy?” Answer is “Mitty” as in Walter Mitty. The ! or ? indicates a pun or joke of some kind.

This will give you an idea of what kind of clue You Are looking at. Think about the clue for a little while, then look up the answer. You cannot be expected to solve any for quite a while, but you will get the feel of it. Having been a fan for decades, I can assure you that it is the best buy in entertainment You Can find.
