Break urn with male figure (7)
I believe the answer is:
numeral
'figure' is the definition.
(a numeral is a figure representing a number)
'break urn with male' is the wordplay.
'break' is an anagram indicator.
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'urn' put after 'male' is 'maleurn'.
'maleurn' anagrammed gives 'NUMERAL'.
(Other definitions for numeral that I've seen before include "See 22" , "Such as 5, 9, iii, etc" , "Symbol representing one or two, perhaps?" , "one involved in maths?" , "Figure representing a value" .)
