Variety

ILK

Think of a word that describes a particular type or kind, often used in phrases like "of the same ___."

"Variety" is a straightforward clue where the answer is a simple synonym. "Ilk" is an old-fashioned word meaning "type" or "kind," so it fits perfectly as another way to say "variety." The clue doesn’t rely on wordplay—it’s just a direct definition, which is common in easier crosswords. Think of phrases like "of that ilk" to remember the word’s meaning.
