Hi Any help with these last 2 much appreciated.
5d Time to take exam, hard (4)
I have SIT* and SITH fits the wordplay but how is this time?
33a She entertains, putting energy into being careless (7)
I have *ISE*SE and again MISEUSE fits the wordplay but is this a woman who entertains? I Can't find it.

Hi Unizeta, re 5d.,
Chambers has a def. of 'time' for SITH. Also from Wiktionary ...
From Middle English sith (“journey, movement, lifetime, period, occasion”), from Old English sīþ (“journey, movement, trip, point in time, occasion”), from Proto-West Germanic *sinþ, from Proto-Germanic *sinþaz, from Proto-Indo-European *sent- (“to go, head”).
For 33a. I have DISEUSE, from French, entertainer.

Many thanks Mattrom. That's helped me avoid the Revenge of the Sith! I think you're right about 33a too. Thanks
