- Rolly 18:39 · hace 4 díasOh man, I failed hard on this one!
- Retriever constructor · hace 4 díasOh no - I hope the answers felt fair when you saw them!
- Rolly 18:39 · hace 4 días2D and 3D I can't get
- Retriever constructor · hace 4 díasBulk buying is buying at scale (so 'scale like' = BULK + Y), and bulky can mean substantial, i.e. major. Explainer for 2d coming in response to Guy below.
- JS 5:46 · hace 2 díasI still don't see how this works. Are you saying that SCALE = BULK? And if you want to use -like to be +Y, you need a question mark to indicate that you're not making an actual word with that meaning.
- Guy Martin-Scott 7:22 · hace 4 díasCould you please explain 2D. I get that a burn is a type of river and that setter usually refers to I, but i don't see how recovery gets shortened to rver... Or have I just completely got the wrong end of the stick!
- Retriever constructor · hace 4 díasOf course! You're right with the definition, burn = RIVER.The apostrophe is doing some interesting work in this clue. 'Setter's' can mean belonging to the setter, which is me, so some something I have = IVE.That just leaves R and R for 'recovery'... which hopefully explains itself!
- Guy Martin-Scott 7:22 · hace 3 díasGreat! Very clever.
- JS 5:46 · hace 2 díasI don't think this explanation works. "I've" is not something you have, and "I've" doesn't mean "belonging to you/setter, but fortunately "Setter has" can be IVE.
