Found word for "leaves" and ended the argument (6,2,5)
I believe the answer is:
called it quits
'found word' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'leaves and ended the argument' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'leaves' could be 'quits' ('quit' can be a synonym of 'leave') and 'quits' is located in the answer.
'the' could be 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects) and 't' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for called it quits that I've seen before include "Resigned" , "Brought an end to a venture to prevent further losses" .)
