Bring up delay about information technology I set up (9)
I believe the answer is:
initiated
'set up' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'bring up delay about information technology i' is the wordplay.
'bring up' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'delay' becomes 'detain' (synonyms).
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'information technology' becomes 'IT' (common abbreviation).
'detain' enclosing 'it' is 'detaitin'.
'detaitin'+'i'='detaitini'
'detaitini' reversed gives 'INITIATED'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for initiated that I've seen before include "Started" , "Accepted into a group by way of a ritual" , "Began" , "Begun" , "Those admitted into the mysteries" .)
