Anabas is a climbing perch...does that make sense?
Climbing ...going up ?
Going up is Anabasis...Unload is(ones)= Anabas

This xword doesn't go in for wasted words much... can you account for "one's unloaded" ? Thank you anyway
I thought I had ! One's unloaded...Remove I's from Anabasis gives you Anabas-

Me too! I just looked at the climbing bit !
Question Author
Sorry kayakamina.....you had indeed explained it all perfectly. I was writing a reply to shaneystar at the same time as you were writing to me. Thank you to you both
