The grid is then called "Word-Cross Puzzle", literally "crossword puzzle", in the shape of a diamond with only three-letter words. It was only in 1924 that the first French grid appeared in the newspaper "Dimanche-Illustré" this time called the mysterious mosaic although it is always presented as a "puzzle" of words and a fun hobby. Today the crosswords - while there is still a distraction for amateur cruciverbists - also meet a demanding audience that is also competing every year in competitions such as on the occasion of the crossword festival that takes place at Is-sur-Tille once every three years or for the annual "Around Words" day in Anthony.
