What one must do to get product like tissues? (8)
I believe the answer is:
multiply
'what' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adverbs.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?
'one must do to get product like tissues?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'one' could be 'i' (Roman numeral) and 'i' is located in the answer.
'do' could be 'ply' (plying is a kind of doing) and 'ply' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for multiply that I've seen before include "Increase the number" , "Accumulate" , "in several ways, each with its own stress" , "Increase, procreate" , "Add an amount to itself a number of times" .)
