Orion's second brightest giving insect drink? Crossword Clue Answer
Let’s find the answers to Orion's second brightest giving insect drink? for the August 20, 2024 edition of crossword puzzle. Answer Contains 10 letters. Start with B and end with E, and the possible solutions are BARBELLATE, BALANCHINE, BETELGEUSE.
The answer is BETELGEUSE.
The answer "Betelgeuse" is derived from the clue "Orion's second brightest giving insect drink." In the constellation Orion, Betelgeuse is the second brightest star, after Rigel. The phrase "giving insect drink" is a wordplay that leads to the answer. Here’s how: "Betelgeuse" comes from the Arabic "yad al-jauza," meaning "the hand of the giant," but over time, the name has been corrupted and simplified in various ways.
The "insect drink" part of the clue can be seen as a cryptic hint. The term "Betelgeuse" phonetically resembles "beetle juice," which might be interpreted as a playful nod to the concept of a drink related to insects. So, the clue cleverly uses wordplay and the astronomical context to lead to Betelgeuse, the star that shines brightly in the constellation Orion.
