Ha ha...I hope you meant alluded and not eluded...we've had enough of those orders already!

 What to Know

Allude means to reference something indirectly. It is usually followed by to, as when one thing "alludes to" another. Elude, which shares the same origin as allude, means "to evade" or "to escape perception or understanding." To remember, keep in mind that elude starts with E, just like escape and evade.
