Get together as recruits? (4)
I believe the answer is:
join
'get together' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'as recruits?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'as' could be 'in' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'in' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'jo' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for join that I've seen before include "Enrol in" , "Audibly" , "make ends meet" , "ally" , "Amalgamate" .)
