   I needed a hint to complete the crossword.

   an indirect suggestion

3. A small, barely detectable amount.

   There was a hint of irony in his voice.

   I could taste a hint of lemon in my iced water.

4. Information in a computer-based font that suggests how the outlines of the font's glyphs should be distorted in order to produce, at specific sizes, a visually appealing pixel-based rendering; an instance of hinting.

   This font does not scale well to small sizes; the hints for the 10-point letter 'g' still need work.

5. An instruction to the database engine as to how a query should be executed, for example whether to use an index or not.
