Copy current computer technology China employs (7)
I believe the answer is:
imitate
'copy' is the definition.
(I know that imitate is a kind of copy)
'current computer technology china employs' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'current' could be 'i' (symbol for electric current) and 'i' is located in the answer.
'technology' could be 'it' (Information Technology) and 'it' is located in the answer.
'china' could be 'mate' (china plate is Cockney rhyming slang for mate) and 'mate' is located in the leftover letters.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for imitate that I've seen before include "Follow suit" , "Copy, simulate" , "Mimic or follow as a model" , "'Ape, copy (7)'" , "Copy (mannerisms)" .)
