Embrace as a group at home first (11)
I believe the answer is:
incorporate
'embrace' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'a group at home first' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'a' is found in the answer.
'at' could be 'in' (synonymous in some cases - eg at school, in school) and 'in' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'as' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for incorporate that I've seen before include "Include as constituent part" , "Form a merger" , "Create whole body" , "Embody" .)
