How do we judge a clue if the clue-giver's route to the keyword seems questionable?
Players suggest asking the clue-giver; the rulebook sets the standard but not how to adjudicate.

Ask the clue-giver what they meant. A clue is fine when the link is to meaning, not to spelling or sound, and the designer notes that players may make odd connections. A deliberate workaround is the real problem, and groups can set stricter house rules.
