Characteristically, would be all Greek to you and me (4) ?E?A Thanks

[factor-fiction]

beta, zeta?

[fuzzy-brain]

Possibly 'Zeta' - 'Z' et 'A' - the complete Greek alphabet from Z to A. Just a thought.

[factor-fiction]

I know beta (or zeta) is a Greek characters but I don't understand the rest of the clue. Are you sure of the letters? Could it something ending in US like Zeus?

[xacross]

Thanks folks ..yes Factor the letters are correct and I'm sure the answer has to be one or the other I also thought of Meta

[bibblebub]

Maybe even feta, or is that answer too cheesy?

[factor-fiction]

Thought WE may be in there

[mazie]

Far too cheesy :o)

[fuzzy-brain]

Taking the 1st word in the clue and interpreting it as meaning all of the alphabetical characters, I would still go with 'Zeta' as it gives the first and (et) last Greek characters.

abba?

[factor-fiction]

Forget ABBA,

[xacross]

Yes I think I'll stay with ZETA thanks for your help.

[factor-fiction]

If it is Z ET A I'm puzzled by the ET since that is Latin (rather than Greek) for AND

[factor-fiction]

Has dannyk or scorpiojo seen this?

[factor-fiction]

Has anyone else got any thoughts on this?

[Tilly2]

Hera? ...Greek goddess

[factor-fiction]

Thanks Tilly. none of the answers given so far seem to fit all aspects of the clue

[Tilly2]

I know, factor. I just thought I'd throw in another word. :-)

[factor-fiction]

Maybe Bibblebub's feta is right. The characters could be F and Eta. I suppose you could say the same for B+eta and Z + eta though.

It's the "to you and me" bit that's puzzling me. I know people say "It's all Greek to me" but they don't normally say "...to you and me" do they?

The Greek word for all doesn't help either

[Tilly2]

Meua is a place in Spain. (No help at all, that!)

[scorpiojo]

Absolutely no idea
