Continue as ultimate model for Oxford, say (4)
I believe the answer is:
last
I believe this is a triple definition!
'continue' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'as' is a link.
'ultimate' is the second definition.
(similar in meaning)
'model for oxford say' is the third definition.
(shoemaker's model - Oxford is a type of shoe)
(Other definitions for last that I've seen before include "` `Let the cobbler stick to his ....' '" , "Piece of cobbler's equipment" , "Cobbler's model shape" , "most recent model" , "Form on which a shoe is made" .)
