View Full Version : [Dixonary] RD 2878: New Word = lake

Yes, I know. Everybody knows what lake means. But I found a usage of the
word in a cryptic crossword that has nothing to do with bodies of water.
So I'd like to try it unless I get too many DQs for the SECONDARY
definition.

So please give me your clever derivations of LAKE (or DQs) as soon as
possible. The deadline for definitions is:

11 a.m. EDT and 10 a.m. CDT on Sunday, March 11.
(That's the day we start Daylight time in the States so the following might
be wrong.)
I believe that is 5 p.m. GMT.
Elsewhere in the world, do your best to figure it out. Anyone who gets me
a definition anywhere near the deadline will be included. I probably won't
be able to post until a few hours later anyway.

Fingers crossed on this unexpected deal...

Nancy

Nancy,

If this is about paint, I'm DQ. (I do English cryptic crosswords too. Maybe that's where I came across it.)

If it stands, I'll try to send in a definition anyhow.

Dang. I forgot to readdress this private email so only Nancy would get it. I may or may not have spilled the beans. Sorry.
