      Thanks - relatively difficult; a few caused me problems.
      5A Is W a recognised abbreviation for "win"? I can't find it in my references.

        Well its in sports reporting all the time, there’s the expression “take the W” (meaning you won the argument or whatever, now stop fighting)

          Thanks for the reply; obviously US v UK again!

          I’m surprised that it’s not in more dictionaries, but W for win is common in sports and in slang, as Larry said.

            Thanks for taking the time to reply; in the UK W is usually "won", as in the league tables for sports (W, L, D for won, lost , drawn); interestingly, Chambers abbreviation dictionary includes "won" (W) but does not have L for "lost" and D for "drawn". It must be another US v UK issue. Thanks for the information; another abbreviation for my list!

              Ah interesting, thanks for the info! For reference I’m from New Zealand, so my cultural influences are kind of an amalgamation of UK and US 🫠
