A gently chiding invitation? (4)
I believe the answer is:
come
'invitation?' is the definition.
(an invitation to come)
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for come that I've seen before include "Approach" , "Turn up" , "Make a forceful impression" , "Arrive" , "Rude aggressive youth" .)
