Allow little margin for error if using wordplay? (3,2,4)
I believe the answer is:
cut it fine
'margin for error if using wordplay?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'allow little' is the wordplay.
'allow' becomes 'cutit' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'little' becomes 'fine' (similar in meaning).
'cutit'+'fine'='CUT IT FINE'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cut it fine that I've seen before include "Take risks" , "Risk not leaving enough margin for error" , "order to salami slicer?" , "Leave dangerously late" , "Do something with little time to spare" .)
