Generous father in Supreme Court promises to pay (8)
I believe the answer is:
spacious
'generous' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'father in supreme court promises to pay' is the wordplay.
'father' becomes 'pa' (pa can mean dad or father).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'supreme court' becomes 'sc' (this could be a standard abbreviation which I don't know about).
'promises to pay' becomes 'ious' (more than one iou).
'pa' placed into 'sc' is 'spac'.
'spac'+'ious'='SPACIOUS'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for spacious that I've seen before include "Having plenty of room" , "Roomy, not congested" , "Ample, roomy" , "Roomy or expansive" , "Big and roomy" .)
