The easy way to make a tacit verb (and worth trying whenever you feel
"stuck") is to use 13 : (remember the space preceding the :).

   13 :'+/"1''abc''=/''abcbdefbbcbaa'''
3 5 2"_

Of course, you probably wanted a verb argument instead of just having that
constant in there, so:

   13 :'+/"1''abc''=/y'
[: +/"1 'abc' =/ ]

And, once you have this, if you do not feel comfortable with it, you can
use dissect and/or you can look things up in the dictionary (whatever does
not make sense) or you can of course ask people here...
