LA Times Crossword tips for tomorrow
- Start with the fills you know cold. Three- and four-letter answers anchor the grid and unlock the longer entries.
- Look for question marks. A clue ending in “?” almost always signals a pun or non-literal definition.
- Mind the tense and number. If the clue is plural, the answer is plural; if past tense, the answer ends in -ED or follows the verb's irregular form.
