Over there
Answer:
YON
Hint:
Think of an old-fashioned word for something distant but still in sight.
Explanation:
"Yon" is an old-fashioned word meaning "over there" or "at a distance," often used in poetry or archaic speech. The clue plays it straight—no wordplay or tricks—just a direct definition pointing to this less common term. If you’ve heard phrases like "yonder hill" in classic literature or songs, that’s the same idea. It’s a short, simple answer for a straightforward clue.
