Analogies
Would "inter" be an alternate solution for one of the clues?
...I'll be damned! It is a word! And it's not (in Collins or Merriam-Webster) marked as archaic or anything.
So first of all: I learned something today.
Second of all: you're absolutely correct, it is 100% the most exact analogue and clearly correct answer. Even if it's not the "official" answer, it should at the very least be accepted as a type-in.
A preface is an introduction that isn't part of the actual narrative ("I first got the idea for this book on a trip to Athens when I was 15...), while a prologue is an introduction that is part of the narrative (say, narrating an important event that happened to the protagonist when they were a child that affects the main narrative where they're an adult.) The latter more nearly parallels epilogue, which takes place after the conclusion of the main narrative showing what happened afterwards (often a "five years later" kind of thing.)
If you want the answer to be an actor, the analogy would have to be something like "Talia Shire is to Adrian as Vivien Leigh is to Stella".
To avoid ambiguity, I'd personally use Wilson is to Tom Hanks instead.
I do feel Tennessee Williams should be accepted as both he and Stalone wrote each one, respectively. But, I understand why you would focus on the actor
Also, it's weird to have "see" as the answer for omniscient - that would be omnivident. I know "know" is a type-in, but surely it's the better (and indeed the only technically correct) answer.
Indeed, the dictionary definition of omniscient is "knowing everything". Etymology:
early 17th century: from medieval Latin omniscient- ‘all-knowing’, based on scire ‘to know’.
Limou + sine = limousine, which is a vehicle.
Camou + flage = Camouflage, which means to mask yourself within the surroundings.
It's technically an analogy but simply splitting up 3 syllable words into increments of 2 syllables at the front and 1 syllable at the back isn't a particularly strong link.
I saw the Stella clue and could only think of the 1990 movie Stella, rather than Streetcar Named Desire.
Omniscient doesn't mean what is written here...
Not the best one here.
