Around, with or without a break? (5)
I believe the answer is:
about
'around' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'or without a break?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'a' is within the answer.
'break?' could be 'out' (outing is a kind of breaking) and 'out' is present in the answer.
A single letter 'b' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'with' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for about that I've seen before include "Moving" , "In the area of or in relation to" , "Apropos, concerning" , "Regarding" , "Nearly" .)
