Got a clue easily, accepting answer in list (9)
I believe the answer is:
catalogue
'list' is the definition.
(I know that catalogue is a type of list)
'got a clue easily accepting answer' is the wordplay.
'easily' indicates anagramming the letters.
'accepting' means one lot of letters goes inside another (inserted letters are accepted).
'answer' becomes 'a' (abbreviation eg in Q and A).
'got'+'a'+'clue'='gotaclue'
'gotaclue' with letters rearranged gives 'catlogue'.
'catlogue' going around 'a' is 'CATALOGUE'.
'in' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for catalogue that I've seen before include "(Ilustrated) list of items" , "Coagulate into kind of directory" , "Systematic list of items" , "List of items for sale" , "Record" .)
