Credit the one who portrayed F Gump? (6)
I believe the answer is:
thanks
'credit the one who portrayed f gump?' is the definition.
'thanks' can be an answer for 'credit' (thesaurus). I am not certain of the remainder of the definition.
'credit the one who' is the wordplay.
'credit' becomes 'thank' (I've seen this in another clue).
'the one who' becomes 's' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'thank'+'s'='THANKS'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for thanks that I've seen before include "Expressions of gratitude" , "Brief expression of appreciation" , "Brief conventional expression of gratitude" , "Ta" , "recognition?" .)
