    TAR meaning a sailor is not something used only in cryptic crosswords. It's just an old-fashioned informal word for a sailor - common enough to be in the Concise Oxford Dictionary. There are a few meanings used in cryptic crosswords and never in normal English, but not that many. One is "flower" meaning a river because it's something that flows, and another is using "the French" to mean "French for 'the'".

    • @DoctorAzmain
      @DoctorAzmain  3 роки тому +5

      Sure!
      To "nurse" = to CARE
      Ship = SS (like in the video)
      Frightens is the definition
      Put CARE in SS = SCARES
      Hope that helps!! :)

    CAN U SAY THE ANSWER OF Headless chickens become wise birds (4)? PLZZ U R MY TR.

    • @DoctorAzmain
      @DoctorAzmain  3 роки тому +5

      Sure! "Headless" is a deletion indicator so take off the first letter.
      Another word for "chickens" is FOWLS.
      If you take off the first letter, you get OWLS, which are wise birds. Hope that helps!! 😊
