2¨ = Multi-colored, based on a one-suited semiforcing in
spades (6+ suit).
2© = Signoff opposite weak-2 in ©, but North may invite next round, if South shows up
with a weak-2 in spades.
3ª = 6+ spades and either 20-22 hcp, or 8-9 playing tricks. North may pass now, if he has
no hope for game.
4ª = At imps, even this 3-count is too promising to pass with.
