More word squares - might be the odd toughie or sneaky one included. Usual deal - I give you the clues (not in the correct order
), you solve the squares.
-1. Worry
Celebration
Unit of area
Blunder
-2. Make entreaties
Despondent
Gathering
Stringed instrument
-3. Low-cut shoe, or to move liquid by applying pressure
Ceremonial staff, or self-defence aid
Iridescent gemstone
Commoner, vulgar person (abbreviation, esp Brit)
-4. Subjected to assessment
Old Testament book
Stoat
Part of an internal combustion engine
Safety rail on a small boat
To pledge or promise
… and now one for those who find the above far too easy. This one is not symmetrical - the across answers are different from the down answers, and (as you might have guessed) both sets of clues are mixed together.
-5. Prevent legislation
Pertaining to the ear
Prefix meaning "half"
Emanate
Property of a substance
Asian grass
Habitual or mechanical procedure
Six deliveries
Enjoy!
