Allude

verb/uh-LOOD/

Meaning

To hint at or mention something without saying it directly.

In context

She alluded to a surprise but refused to give any details.

Remember it

ALLUDE is not 'elude'; here you gently 'a-lude' (hint) at something.

Use it well

Use 'allude to' for indirect hints; don't confuse it with 'elude' (escape).
