2.Resound?

[Marjoprydore]

Sorry I meant to say could you explain as well as don't like to use an answer without understanding.

2-request?

[fiction-factory]

I assume this is a quiz rather than a crossword- are all the answers words relating to sound? Does REQUEST fit the theme?

[dannyk13]

What is the theme, from the title I guessed it was about sound?

Is it noisy Margo?

[fiction-factory]

Yes, I'm not sure it's a sound related answer Margo- nor am I sure T is an abbreviation for turns.
I was looking for an anagram of INTURNS plus something like d (penny) or another old measure (F- Fahrenheit?)

[MargoTester]

I was just looking at the old measure bit?

[Marjoprydore]

Sorry yes a quiz, rather confusing as not all are noisy, think request will be ok. Not always heard but .....
I was working on old measures, eg. oz, mile, yard, lb etc but no result yet. Driving me mad, I have another answer=rumour, don't know if right. Certainly cannot be described as noisy, unlike a trumpet. Help please

Pity it wasn't 9 letters because 'challenge' would fit the wordplay ('old measure' = ELL 'turns' inside 'alter' = CHANGE).
And there are various meanings that fit with the theme - the baying call of hunting hounds or the challenge ''who goes there'' from a sentry etc.
Still a bit of a stretch though.
