A way to turn back time that makes me angry (4)
I believe the answer is:
drat
'time that makes me angry' is the definition.
The definition and answer are not the same part of speech.
'a way to turn back' is the wordplay.
'way' becomes 'rd' (short for road).
'to' means one lot of letters go next to another (I've seen this in other clues).
'turn' becomes 't' (abbreviation in Oxford Dictionary of Abbreviations).
'back' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'a'+'rd'='ard'
'ard' after 't' is 'tard'.
'tard' reversed gives 'DRAT'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for drat that I've seen before include "Exclamation of annoyance" , "Minced oath" , "Curse it!" , "Expression of annoyance on DART" , "blast" .)
