'coax' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with communicating as well as being verbs in their base form.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'have a game of golf' is the wordplay.
'have' becomes 'get' (synonyms).
'game of golf' becomes 'round' (I've seen this before).
'get'+'a'+'round'='GET AROUND'

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for get around that I've seen before include "Travel" , "buy drinks for everyone" , "Circulate" , "Overtake" , "Socialise a lot" .)
