The Mail on Sunday arroword is EREICUAPLLNC and an anagram of this is 'a natural phenomenon'. Can anyone help with the answer please? Thank you. :)

    Is it all one word?

    I put the letters in an anagram solver (cheating I know!) and it came back with no results found.

    Cheers for that, however they didn't specify and no further clue was given.

    Are the arrowords usually one word? I won't be able to sleep tonight now! So I hope someone solves it :D

    I'm presuming it is two words, as I am having the same problem by cheating with anagram solvers!! I can make out Rain, but the other word(s) could be anything.

    This however probably wouldn't be described as natural..

    It's bugging me as well. You have to solve the arroword to get the letters for the anagram so I hope the letters are correct.:o

    If they aren't coming up in an anagram solver they probably aren't.

    MSE have the answer as
    LUNAR ECLIPSE

    so it looks like you have one letter wrong.

    I think the answer is CARPAL NUCLEI so the 'e' in carpel should be an 'a'. Thanks for all your help peeps! ;-)

    Five carpal nuclei, however, can be made out, and the two proximal
    nuclei are known to be further subdivided, each into two, in other
    types ; hence we can already account for seven carpals in the bird,
    which has only two in the adult, in a free state.

    Oh no! Perhaps you should put the whole thing on here so we can check your solution :D Otherwise none of us are going to settle tonight :D
