Charlie gets hurt, but may be lucky (5)
I believe the answer is:
charm
'may be lucky' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'charlie gets hurt' is the wordplay.
'charlie' becomes 'c' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'gets' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'hurt' becomes 'harm' ('harm' can be a synonym of 'hurt'**).
'c'+'harm'='CHARM'
'but' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for charm that I've seen before include "Personal attractiveness and charisma" , "Delight; magical object" , "Attractive manner" , "Personal attraction" , "Make delighted" .)
