The term COVERED PASSAGE can be broken down into four words: ARCADE (6 letters), CLOISTER (8 letters), ADELA (5 letters), and FLUE (4 letters). An ARCADE is a covered passageway, usually lined with arches or columns, that is open to the public. A CLOISTER is a covered passageway, often found in monasteries, that is used for meditation and contemplation. Adela is a female name derived from the Germanic word for 'NOBLE' and is sometimes used to refer to a covered passageway. Finally, a FLUE is a covered passageway that is used to carry smoke and other gases away from a fireplace or furnace. Together, these four words describe a covered passage.
