Got out a sword, which does contribute to (2,7)
I believe the answer is:
go towards
'does contribute to' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'got out a sword' is the wordplay.
'out' is an anagram indicator.
'a'+'sword'='asword'
'asword' is an anagram of 'owards'.
'got'+'owards'='GO TOWARDS'
'which' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for go towards that I've seen is " Approach".)
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
