Encourage family hand-out, while giving nothing away (6)
I believe the answer is:
kindle
'encourage' is the definition.
'family hand-out while giving nothing away' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'family' could be 'kin' (synonyms) and 'kin' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for kindle that I've seen before include "Set alight" , "Ignite" , "Modern book store" , "Light (flame), arouse" , "Linked (anag)" .)
