I'd be grateful for the parsing of these.
Communicate with husband , exchanging letters. Ans Converse. (=Communicate)
Girl, out of practice , has to try again. Ans Rehear (I get the try again bit)
Minimum to be destroyed (no good ) fifty initially. Ans Lowest (I get minimum and l for 50)
Inflicting severe pain by twisting? That's about right! Ans Torturous
As someone pointed out these appear to be old style crosswords.

If the last answer is TORTUROUS it feels a bit wrong, as twisting would be TORTUOUS
