Plural personalities is a word puzzle in Daily Orbs where each clue describes a word before and after it becomes plural. To solve a clue, find a singular word that fits one description and whose plural form fits the other.

How to Solve a Clue

1. Read both descriptions together. Treat them as two parts of one word puzzle, rather than as separate questions with unrelated answers.

2. Think of a word that fits the first description. Use that description to identify a possible singular word. Keep it as a candidate until you have checked the second half.

3. Make your candidate plural. Consider the resulting word’s meaning, not just the fact that it refers to more than one thing.

4. Compare the plural with the second description. A complete solution must explain both halves: the original word fits the first description, and its plural fits the second.

5. Use the singular word as your answer. The documented example gives glass, rather than glasses, as the answer to the pairing of a drinking vessel with eyewear.

Worked Example: Drinking Vessel and Eyewear

The recorded example pairs drinking vessel with eyewear. Work through it as follows:

The answer is glass. Making it plural produces glasses, which satisfies the other description.

The important connection is the change in meaning. For this clue, thinking only of several drinking vessels would miss the eyewear description. You need a reading of the plural that accounts for the second half.

Tips for Checking Your Answer

• Do not stop after matching one description. A word that fits only the first half is still an unconfirmed candidate.
• Look for another meaning of the plural. The glass example demonstrates that the second description can point to a different use of the word, rather than simply multiple instances of the original object.
• Work backward if the second description is clearer. Identify a possible plural word, then check whether its singular form matches the first description.
• Explain both connections before settling on an answer. Your check should be as direct as “glass means a drinking vessel; glasses means eyewear.”
