SAND

Understanding Today's Crossword Puzzle

The clue "Ocean liner?" and the answer "SAND" may initially seem puzzling, but there is a clever wordplay connection between the two that leads to the solution:

  • Ocean: When we think of the ocean, we often picture beaches and shorelines.
  • Liner: In the context of this crossword clue, "liner" refers not to a ship but to something that is used to line or cover a surface.
  • SAND: Putting these two parts together, we get "Ocean liner," hinting at a material that lines the ocean shores - "SAND." This answer plays on the dual meaning of "liner," guiding solvers to think beyond the obvious maritime interpretation to reach the correct solution.
This kind of wordplay is a common technique in crosswords, requiring solvers to engage in lateral thinking and consider multiple meanings of words to arrive at the correct answer.
