Yes, chrise; I’ve come across ‘??????’ from time to time, but have never stopped to think about how short a ???? has to be to qualify as a ?????. Perhaps when Beethoven greatly expanded the ?????, a term was needed for the more modest version that had preceded it?

Oh dammit. Can’t believe I’ve done that. Profuse apologies to all. I don’t think my new routine suits me.

Don’t worry Roger, I had a request to amend the post so there’s now a series of annoying question marks😂

Still no PDM on 20. Is the "on" a cricket reference?

Chris, no, in this instance it’s the usual two letters meaning concerning.

Thanks jono. That was one of my (few!) candidate words, but I'm not seeing how it relates to a theme. Perhaps Google will help!
