Across Clues
- IFFY. The clue asked for something “questionable.” Classic usage.
- CHILE. A geography nerd’s delight. It’s about 25 times longer than wide. Narrow country, vast distance.
- FOCUS. The iPhone setting that keeps you from doom-scrolling. Irony aside, it works.
- OPUS. Completes the phrase “Magum __.” A masterpiece in the making.
- SESH. Slang for a get-together. Very casual. Very modern.
Down Clues
- IHOPE. As in, “fingers crossed!” Simple wishful thinking.
- FICUS. The indoor plant. The clue notes its name is just one vowel away from 6-Across. Clever.
- FLUSH. The clue listed hearts. A full hand, essentially. What does “aye” mean anyway?
- YES. The definition of “aye.” Short and sweet.
Did you get the flush before looking?
