Please explain these.
1. Maybe lighter broadcast about to be introduced. Ans Scow ( vessel like a lighter ie barge) but can't see the rest.
2.Cause of shortened breath? Ans Gas . Is it simply that if you breathe in say carbon monoxide you will be short of breath?
3. I tried to help party that went with a swing. Ans voter. Ok if you vote for a party you will be trying to get that party elected and if enough do it that could contribute to say a 5% swing -is that it? I would have thought hard to get without any crossers.
4.Ability to make sense of ciphers? Ans numeracy. Bit puzzled here as generally you want letters coded as other letters or numbers so being numerate would only be half the picture.
5.Operatic hero not quite right in the head. Ans Norma . Can't get the "not quite right in the head". Thought of ab norma l but that doesn't seem to work.
