Give more details on complex pandemic figures (6)
I believe the answer is:
expand
'give' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to change as well as being verbs in their base form.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'more details on complex pandemic figures' is the wordplay.
'EXPAND' is hidden in amongst the letters.
But, I'm not sure how the hidden word is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for expand that I've seen before include "produce growth" , "put on weight?" , "Increase in bulk or importance" , "Swell" , "Mushroom" .)
