Folk I link with servility (8)
I believe the answer is:
menially
'folk i link with servility' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'folk i link with' is the wordplay.
'folk' becomes 'men' (both can mean people).
'link with' becomes 'ally' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'men'+'i'+'ally'='MENIALLY'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for menially that I've seen is " in a lowly role".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
