There's a few where I am confident that I know the answer but simply cannot work out all the reasoning. And there's one where I don't know what the word can be even though I have most of the letters. May I start with that one please?
Study art in Paris, perhaps. I have e?s?l (though the e and the l are dependent on two later queries). The only word I can think of is easel. But why?
Now the ones where I think I know the answer but (still the learner, see!) cannot completely understand why.
Lucky charm that protects frog. I think the answer is horseshoe which of course fits withe lucky charm but where does the frog come in?
Ignoring Washington, constantly charge plant. I have a???s?m and there is a plant alyssum and sum can equal charge. but where is Washington and ally?
And, finally, Tutor fell where lift starts.(two words. 6,5) I have g?o?n? / f?o?r so the answer seems to be ground floor which is where a lift starts I suppose. But tutor? fell? I dunno
As ever, time is of an essence for me (the witching hour is near). I should be really grateful for explanations.
