Give a turn very quietly in foxy fashion (6)
I believe the answer is:
supply
'fashion' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'give a turn very quietly in foxy' is the wordplay.
'give' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'a turn' becomes 'u' (a 'U-turn' is a kind of turn).
'very quietly' becomes 'pp' (musical abbreviation for pianissimo).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'foxy' becomes 'sly' (synonyms).
'u'+'pp' is 'upp'.
'upp' placed within 'sly' is 'SUPPLY'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for supply that I've seen before include "Provide or furnish with" , "Stand-in teacher" , "Make available" , "Furnish goods or services" , "Contribute" .)
