How to solve this answer

Pattern

Words After

The answer comes first, and each clue can follow it to make a familiar pair. Flip the order in your head.

Tennis, Lamp, Mountain, and Contents can all follow Table. The answer is Table: table tennis, table lamp, table mountain, table of contents.

Difficulty

Medium

Clues need a second look or a shift in angle. The link is fair, but the first reading of one or two clues usually misleads.

Wordplay

Puzzles that lean on double meanings, homophones, prefixes, suffixes, and the way English words bend. Read each clue twice before you trust the first reading.

This is the mirror of Words Before, and solvers mix them up constantly. Write the candidate first, then the clue. Table + Tennis works. Tennis + Table does not, and your ear usually catches that faster than your eyes.

Common starter words do a lot of the work: book, fire, house, time, court, water, head. If the clues are plain nouns that pair with everyday objects, test this pattern first.
