Encounter a group of hunters (4)
I believe the answer is:
meet
'encounter' is the definition.
(I know that encounter can be written as meet)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for meet that I've seen before include "Happen upon" , "Come upon" , "Touch; suitable (arch.)" , "Fitting to come together" , "assembly at hunt" .)
