Exhausted and broke (5)
I believe the answer is:
spent
This clue might be a double definition.
'exhausted' is the first definition.
(I know that exhausted can be written as spent)
'broke' is the second definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for spent that I've seen before include "Expended" , "Worn out, having laid out money" , "Burned-out" , "Worn Out, exhausted" , "Used up; exhausted" .)
