Adopted French word that means "a summary" - a synopsis

[hippocampus]

apercu

[AD09087]

Thanks. Tricky that one !!

[Figi]

Sorry, I disagree. Surely it's "r�sum�".

[AD09087]

apercu fits with the other clues and definition in onelook dictionary matches

[goldenfield]

When the answer is *p*r*u, you disagree FIgi? Do you do the Telegraph crossword? If not, how can you disagree?

[hippocampus]

Must admit I had "precis" to start with but "apercu" fits with the rest of the crossword.

bit hard on Figi there aren't you goldenfield? After all AD09087 didn't actually give the letters he had in the original posting. :o(

[Figi]

Thank you Dustybun. I had no idea that the original poster already had some letters! And no Goldenfield, I wouldn't be seen dead reading the Telegraph nor doing its crossword.

Figi - it was not the fact that you gave an answer that made me comment, it was the fact that you disagreed with the answer given by hippocampus, which was correct. By all means provide another suitable possible answer but you simply cannot disagree with somebody else unless you know your answer to be correct or have reasonable grounds for believing a previous answer to be wrong - neither was the case here.

Dustybun - bit hard? For the reason above, I think not.
