Delete account over a new delivery method (9)
I believe the answer is:
caesarean
'new delivery method' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how one could define the other.
'delete account over a' is the wordplay.
'delete' becomes 'erase' (synonyms).
'account' becomes 'ac' (abbreviation for account).
'over' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'a' becomes 'an'.
'erase'+'ac'='eraseac'
'eraseac' written backwards gives 'caesare'.
'caesare'+'an'='CAESAREAN'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for caesarean that I've seen before include "Surgical operation to facilitate birth" , "Operation for child delivery" , "Roman rule's" , "Of Julius; a type of section" , "covered by emperor" .)
