The clue for this puzzle is the act of listing one by one. It came from the British Quick Crossword, and we’re looking for an eleven-letter word. This one isn’t so hard if you have a broad vocabulary. In fact, you probably already encountered this in school.
The answer to the act of listing one by one
The answer we’re looking for is ENUMERATION. Enumerating something can be done by making a list. Think about making a grocery list. You can list it in numbers or just by using a bullet point system. Enumerating something doesn’t even have to be about writing it down.
You can do it by stating the things that are supposed to be listed. In fact, when you order from a restaurant, it is also a form of enumeration. You state your order in a specific order and the waiter lists all of it down, so that counts. We mentioned that this is something you learned in school. How many tests have you gotten where you had to enumerate your answers?
