Drags every inch? (5)
I believe the answer is:
totes
'drags every inch?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with communicating as well as being verbs in their -s form.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
This is the entire clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for totes that I've seen before include "Carries, drags" , "Bears" , "Carries the betting system" , "Carries or shoulders" , "Carries, lugs" .)
