maybe inexact? comes into it ????

[pixie374]

No idea, sorry. Not sure about inetat...

[dannyk13]

Maybe, but still can't parse it from the clue.

[pixie374]

Unless it's "nine at"...

[dannyk13]

Still does't make any sense to me.

The clues are exactly as printed. The author often takes "poetic licence". A friend thinks that he has his own dictionary. I think now that it is probably SO TRUE and Taxi. Thanks.

lol

[fiction-factory]

inetat includes ten backwards.
in Latin that's X
So inetat becomes ixat
taxi in reverse
