Group determined to have a drink together? (6)
I believe the answer is:
teaset
'drink together?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'group determined to have a' is the wordplay.
'group' becomes 'te' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'determined' becomes 'set' (synonyms).
'to have' is an insertion indicator.
'te'+'set'='teset'
'teset' enclosing 'a' is 'TEASET'.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
