A bit of money to raise? (3)
I believe the answer is:
yen
'a bit' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both quantities as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'of money to raise?' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'raise?' shows that the letters should be reversed in order (I've seen 'raises' mean this).
'ney' can be found hidden inside 'money to'.
'ney' reversed gives 'YEN'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for yen that I've seen before include "Urge" , "Intense longing" , "Longing, hankering after" , "Longing (colloq.)" , "Itch, desire" .)
