Answer about a person with a quarter (8)
I believe the answer is:
response
'answer' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'a person with a quarter' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
an anagram of 'person' is 'respon' which is present in the answer.
'quarter' could be 'se' and 'se' is present in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'about' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for response that I've seen before include "Answer - reaction" , "'Answer, reply (8)'" , "Press one for a reply" , "bid by partner" , "Reply, rejoinder" .)
