A charged particle is an ion—an atom or molecule with an unequal number of protons and electrons. More specifically, it may be a positively charged cation or a negatively charged anion; an electron is also charged but is not generally the intended broad-definition answer. Read this as a straightforward science definition, usually seeking ION if the entry is short. Use the answer length and crossings to distinguish the broad term from the more specific positive or negative forms.
Small details in the wording can help you figure out what form the answer should take. Look for these three signals:
A past-tense clue usually calls for a past-tense answer: "Moved quickly" could be SPED, while "Moves quickly" could be SPEEDS. Match the tense, even when the answer uses an irregular form rather than ending in -ED.
A noun usually calls for a noun, a verb for a verb, and an adjective for an adjective. For example, "Happiness" could be JOY, "Make happy" could be PLEASE, and "Happy" could be GLAD. Read the whole phrase! Some words can function as more than one part of speech.
A singular clue usually needs a singular answer, while a plural clue usually needs a plural answer. "Child" could be TOT; "Children" could be TOTS. Remember that not every plural ends in -S: "Male adults" could be MEN, and words like SHEEP can be singular or plural.
