Argues again, then rests ears, maybe (9)
I believe the answer is:
reasserts
'argues again' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'then rests ears maybe' is the wordplay.
'then' says to put letters next to each other.
'maybe' indicates anagramming the letters.
'rests' next to 'ears' is 'restsears'.
'restsears' with letters rearranged gives 'REASSERTS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
