Expression used by the Sherpa (6)
I believe the answer is:
phrase
'expression' is the definition.
(I know that phrase is a type of expression)
'by the sherpa' is the wordplay.
'sherpa' anagrams to 'PHRASE'.
But, I'm not sure how the anagram is indicated.
'used' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for phrase that I've seen before include "Set of words for sherpa" , "Saying" , "Words for a seraph" , "Piece of music" , "Group of words/notes" .)
