Have novel experience? (4)
I believe the answer is:
read
This clue might be a double definition.
'have' is the first definition.
(reading is a kind of having)
'novel experience?' is the second definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to thinking as well as being verbs in their base form.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for read that I've seen before include "Interpret (text)" , "Understand written music" , "Check, emend (proof)" , "Interpret writing" , "Use a book" .)
