What does INDOOR mean?
INDOOR (adjective): situated, used, or done inside a building rather than in the open air. Example: “They set up an indoor garden so the herbs would survive the winter.”
Similar: inside, interior, sheltered. Opposite: outdoor, outside, open-air.
Did you know? "Indoor" is simply "in" plus "door" fused together, a straightforward compound that entered common use in the 18th century alongside "outdoor."
Using INDOOR in a sentence
INDOOR only goes in front of a noun: an indoor pool, an indoor cat, indoor plants. After a verb you need indoors instead: 'Stay indoors until the storm passes', never 'stay indoor'. The same split applies to outdoor and outdoors, and it's one of the most common slips English learners make. Sport uses the word constantly, with indoor cycling, indoor climbing and the indoor season in athletics, while building engineers talk about indoor air quality. It pairs most naturally with its opposite, as in 'indoor and outdoor seating'.
How INDOOR fits the puzzle
INDOOR circles D and O, the D and second O of GOOD.
Its circled letters feed the caption answer, CLEARLY A GOOD IDEA.
