Disadvantage ward? (8)
I believe the answer is:
drawback
This clue could be a double definition.
'disadvantage' is the first definition.
(I know that drawback is a type of disadvantage)
'ward?' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for drawback that I've seen before include "Hindrance - disadvantage" , "Snag" , "Disadvantage, problem" , "Hindrance - retreat" , "Obstacle" .)
