I believe the answer is:

whine

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'complain' is the definition.
(I know that whine is a kind of complain)

I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for whine that I've seen before include "Petulant complaint" , "Complaining cry" , "Shrill sound of dog" , "Moan" , "Querulous complaining" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
