Gap year rather vague (6)
I believe the answer is:
spacey
'rather vague' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'gap year' is the wordplay.
'gap' becomes 'space' (I've seen this in another clue).
'year' becomes 'y'.
'space'+'y'='SPACEY'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for spacey that I've seen before include "unconventional" , "Unaware of one's surroundings - (of electronic music) drifting and ethereal" , "Kevin ..., stage and film actor" .)
