Forceful sort of service? (6)
I believe the answer is:
police
This might be a double definition.
'forceful sort' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with social activities as well as being verbs in their base form.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'service?' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both groups as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for police that I've seen before include "Crime fighters" , "Emergency service" , "Civil force" , "Monitor; control" , "Limbs of the law" .)
