This extended journal version of the authors' Italian crossword generator, which uses fine-tuned language models to write and check clues from keywords or texts, adds a syntactic analysis of crossword clues. The analysis shows how clues derive from full sentences and which structures are preferred, as groundwork for personalized puzzles in education and medicine.
