Help appreciated.

33. Young family member, now old - whiff of antiquity surrounds one (5)
?I??T could be HINT around A but not sure of Hiant

28. Not Quite understanding past, long ago (4)
SE?? SENS(e)?

34. Doubly safe parent, not absent, steered through right and wrong (13, 4 words)
This looks like an anagram but cannot figure out which words to use for the anagram

Thanks.

33a sient (same meaning as scion - young family member)

I'm stuck on the other 2 too!
28d sens (chambers -since) looks good
Question Author
Thanks saladdodger
So whiff of old equals sent (scent). New one for me.

I have 23d ending in F.
If 34A is 4,3,3,3, the last word becomes FA?.
Not much help.
relie f ? for 23d?
Question Author
yes. f for fine.
I don't have Chambers. The online Chambers Wizard has limited words
so cannot get the meaning of relie but
relief could mean fresh provisions.
Question Author
I just checked the word RELIE in French . It means join or connect , close to assemble.

Could 34A be the anagram of SAFE SAFE PRENT (parent less a)?Could it be a foreign phrase?
Answered by Film Fan on another forum

Per Fas Et Nefas Latin for Through Right and Wrong. (Anag of Safe,safe and Parent.)
and as you say minus 'a'
yes hankir anagram of safe, safe prent (parent less a-absent)
26d scena - ascarmenon less normaone - anagram
Question Author
Yes it is a foreign phrase and anagram of safe safe prent.
But it is 4 words and means "by fair means or foul".

Phew. This completes this week's AZED.
Question Author
Thank you all.
Your posts crossed mine. When you responded, I was researching foreign phrases and found the answer.
With no knowledge of Scottish and French, it is becoming harder to solve AZED puzzles.
