A certain four sections cut originally in a shorter broadcast (9)
I believe the answer is:
orchestra
'a certain four sections cut originally in a shorter broadcast' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'cut originally in a shorter broadcast' is the wordplay.
'originally' says to take the initial letters.
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'broadcast' indicates an anagram (letters scattered or cast around).
The first letter of 'cut' is 'c'.
'a'+'shorter'='ashorter'
'ashorter' is an anagram of 'orhestra'.
'c' going inside 'orhestra' is 'ORCHESTRA'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for orchestra that I've seen before include "kitchen setting?" , "Large musical group" , "players in pit" , "Big group of musicians playing various instruments" , "Large music group" .)
