Good enough to get gilded, possibly? (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
gilt edged
'good enough' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'get gilded possibly?' is the wordplay.
'possibly?' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'possibly' mean this).
'get'+'gilded'='getgilded'
'getgilded' anagrammed gives 'GILT-EDGED'.
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for gilt edged that I've seen before include "extremely reliable" , "Top-quality" .)
