Today's Jumble

Things I learned from Today's Jumble. One of the words could be construed as CYDER, which is the British spelling of CIDER, but this is an American puzzle, so British spellings are not allowed. DECRY was the answer.


ENTRANCE [1] (to enter) has the same spelling as

ENTRANCE [2], which is to charm or captivate. Just different pronunciation. I knew how to spell the two words, it just never occurred to me that they were spelled the same. Or maybe it's just one of those things I used to know but forgot.

Update December 2016 replaced missing picture.
