JW777: The Letter Belonged to Both Words
Crossing words must agree in their shared square. Test a proposed letter change against both words before accepting it.
Write CAT across a three-square row and CAR down from the same first square. Both words share the C at the corner.
A new clue asks for DOG across. Replacing CAT changes that shared square from C to D.

One shared cell affects both words
The downward letters now spell DAR, not CAR. Changing one answer has affected another answer through the shared cell.
Anika had checked only the new horizontal word. She now reads every word crossing a changed square.
The task may require a new downward answer or a different horizontal solution. Keeping both old clues while forcing incompatible letters cannot solve it.
Mark shared squares with a light circle during learning. The mark shows where local changes have consequences elsewhere.

Try a consistent revision
For a valid revision example, replace CAT with CUP. The shared first letter stays C, so CAR still reads correctly.
This does not prove every revised clue fits; it checks only the letter intersection. Clue meaning and shared-letter consistency are separate requirements.
Create your own two-word crossing with a friend. Exchange one clue and ask which other answer must be rechecked.
The JW777 word exercise teaches why a tidy local replacement can have a wider effect. Shared cells carry obligations in more than one direction.
