Fan

← Enneagon
Halfsquare →

In a fan, words read across and diagonally. The two longest diagonal words always read from top to bottom. The others all slope to the left or right, as in a star (which see). The length of each side is equal to half the number of clues. The fan is inherently double (see double forms).
