Church official using road and Metro for a change (9)
I believe the answer is:
moderator
'church official' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'road and metro for a change' is the wordplay.
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'for a change' is an anagram indicator.
'road' after 'metro' is 'metroroad'.
'metroroad' anagrammed gives 'MODERATOR'.
'using' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for moderator that I've seen before include "One presides over a forum or debate" , "Presbyterian president" , "Judge" , "clerical figure" , "Someone who presides over a forum or debate" .)
