Completed grid but opening instruction is passing me by - what is OWCHE ? As usual any help welcome

Dobbo, Owche is actually a word (well, can be turned into a word) … just not an English word.

Thank you

Owche can be ouch and Woche can be week in German.

Neither gives me any clue on what to do for the end game.

Nudge please.

Your second idea is worth exploring, sunray

Thanks quisling.
My German knowledge is close to zero.
So I started looking for what Woche could consist of.

I found 6 items.
Seventh is missing.

Am I correct?

That’s what I thought, sunray

Thanks quisling for your hint.

Glad I could help, Dobbo.

Glad you got help, Sunray.

I have managed to work out the OWCHE meaning Week but now I am grid staring and wondering what relevance that has to anything. Also, am not happy about the answer to the parsing of both 45 & 46a, a signpost would be much appreciated. Regards
