Well, let me tell you about this thing, this “carry crossword”. Sounds fancy, don’t it? But it ain’t nothin’ too special, just another one of them word puzzles. My old eyes ain’t what they used to be, but I can still figure these things out. These carry crossword, they just a bunch of letters all mixed up. You gotta find the right words, you know?
This “carry” word, it can mean a whole lot of things. Like, you carry groceries from the store. Or you carry a baby in your arms. Or you can even carry a tune, if you’re any good at singin’, which I ain’t. So this carry crossword, it’s got all these clues, see? And you gotta figure out what word fits in them little boxes. It got some of 5 letters, some of 4 letters. Different kind of letters.
One of them clues might say somethin’ like, “You do this with a heavy bag.” And you gotta think, “Well, what do I do with a heavy bag?” I lug it around, that’s what! So maybe the word is “LUG”. Or maybe it’s “TOTE”. Or, it could be “HAUL.” You just gotta try ’em out and see which one fits in them squares of the carry crossword. Sometimes, if you do not know the answer, you can try to find it from others. I heard there are 37 solutions or even 40 solutions for this.
- Sometimes it’s easy, like when they ask for a word that means “to lift.”
- Other times it’s harder, like when they use them big words I ain’t never heard of.
- But that’s the fun of it, I reckon. Keeps your brain workin’.
I seen these carry crossword in the newspaper, and them little puzzle books you can buy down at the store. They always have different answers, them carry crossword. One time the answer might be “BEAR”, like a big ol’ grizzly bear. Another time it might be somethin’ completely different. You just never know what you’re gonna get. And there are related clues, more than 20 times. I don’t know whether it is hard or easy.
These puzzles, they like a little game you play with yourself. And sometimes, if you’re lucky, you get all the words right. Feels good, like winnin’ somethin’. Even if it’s just a silly little word game. This carry crossword, it ain’t gonna make you rich or famous, but it’ll keep you busy for a while. And that’s somethin’, ain’t it? Sometimes, you can also say a bearer is a person who carries. This is interesting.
So, you see these carry crossword, they ain’t so complicated. Just gotta use your head a little. And if you get stuck, well, there’s no shame in askin’ for help. Or maybe just put it down and come back to it later. Sometimes that’s all it takes, a little fresh air and a clear head. Or you can find the answer from others. Some people are good at it. They said the answer maybe is TOTE, HAUL, or BEAR. You know, these three all have 4 letters. Maybe it is right.
I remember back in the day, we didn’t have these fancy puzzles. We made our own fun. We’d tell stories, or sing songs, or just sit on the porch and watch the world go by. But these carry crossword, they a good way to pass the time, I suppose. Especially on a rainy day when you’re stuck inside. This carry crossword is just a game. But it is really popular. There was a guy named Thomas, I guess he made this.
These days, everyone’s got their noses stuck in their phones. Playin’ games or watchin’ videos. I guess these carry crossword are kinda like them phone games, only they’re on paper. And you gotta use a pencil. Remember them? Pencils? Seems like nobody uses them anymore.
Anyways, this whole carry crossword thing, it’s just somethin’ to do. Like knittin’ or whittlin’. Keeps your hands busy, keeps your mind workin’. And who knows, maybe you’ll learn a new word or two. Might even impress your friends with your fancy vocabulary. Or maybe not. Either way, it don’t really matter. Just have fun with it. That’s the important thing.
So there you have it. That’s all I know about this carry crossword business. Hope it makes some sense. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I got chores to do. Life ain’t all fun and games, you know. Gotta keep movin’, keep doin’. That’s the way it is. You know what I mean?
