Thanks, kayakamina.
Wrong thinking on my part.
I was trying for loveless marriage inside a word for tribe.
You're welcome.
What does that make 35a) Nothing for one in preliminary selection - haven't had it for ages ! (4,4). L?n?/L???
Cheers

Long lost (from long list)
ENDOGAMY is marriage within an ethnic group. "almost" => ENDOGAM. "loveless" => ENDGAM. "directions" == ES. Hard!
