The below is an alphabetical list of words that are related in some way, with each blank representing a letter. For each entry in the grid besides 1a, either the entry itself is one of these words, or the clue should contain one of these words. When the word should be in a clue, it is replaced with a bracketed number corresponding to its place in this list, as well as a reminder of the word's length. For example, "[#27:7]" should be replaced with #27 on the below list, which is 7 letters long.
