Bad habit with risk? Toss dice up to uni staffer (4,10)
I believe the answer is:
vice chancellor
'uni staffer' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'bad habit with risk? toss dice up' is the wordplay.
'bad habit' becomes 'vice' (a sin or weakness).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'risk?' becomes 'chance' (chance is a kind of risk).
'toss dice up' becomes 'llor' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'vice'+'chance'+'llor'='VICE-CHANCELLOR'
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for vice chancellor that I've seen before include "University executive" , "University administrator" , "University officer" , "Uni executive" .)
