Better to expose indecent act? (8)
I believe the answer is:
outstrip
'better' is the definition.
(better can mean to outstrip or outdo)
'expose indecent act?' is the wordplay.
'expose' becomes 'out' (to out someone is to expose them).
'indecent act?' becomes 'strip' (strip is a kind of act. I am not sure about the 'indecent' bit.).
'out'+'strip'='OUTSTRIP'
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for outstrip that I've seen before include "Leave behind" , "Beat" , "Exceed; move faster than" , "Surpass, overtake" , "Exceed, overtake" .)
