Clue/Question: She learned exactly how to spell “memory” and would need to – – –
Answer: KEEP IT IN MIND
(I guess that’s what we all do when we put things in our memory banks! That was never a difficult word for me though. Because I think very phonetically I’ve long had a problem with the word preparation. I always think ER instead of AR, even though I know the root word is PREPARE. There are others, but I can’t think of them at this moment. But memory was never one of them.
I had hopes that “misuse” might be new, but it was on the ralis95 clue word database. I almost wrote conive for “novice”, until I thought better. Three of the jumbles came up as new, for me. But we’ve definitely seen “itodi” before. The answer letter layout was a doozy of a dozen letter jumble. But the final answer came to me right away, even though I didn’t think it was much of a pun, at first.

UR,
The common pronunciation of “connive” makes it easy to think “conive”. You don’t need to be an IDIOT NOVICE to MISUSE the spelling…back in the day, my fellow crew members may have threatened to make one walk the PLANK for such a grammatical error(just threaten)…”KEEP IT IN MIND” as you wander through the realm of “puzzling”!!^£…….
It’s a long way to…….Lattttter…….k
