Full breakdownAn anagram clue asks you to rearrange a set of letters (the fodder) to form the answer. The clue always contains an anagram indicator — a word or phrase that signals mixing, breaking, or reshuffling — plus a straight definition of the answer.
Look for indicator words that suggest disorder, change, or rearrangement. Then count the letters of nearby words to see if they match the answer length. If a group of letters beside the indicator has the exact letter count, you have likely found the fodder.
