Generous way for the little woman to lash out (6)
I believe the answer is:
lavish
'generous' is the definition.
('lavish' can be similar in meaning to 'generous')
'woman to lash out' is the wordplay.
'woman' becomes 'vi' (**).
'out' indicates putting letters inside.
'vi' inserted into 'lash' is 'LAVISH'.
'way for the little' acts as a link.
This may not be right. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lavish that I've seen before include "Heap (money)" , "Sumptuously rich" , "Prodigal - unrestrained" , "Extremely generous" , "Sumptuous" .)
