Healer goes round in the family way (9)
I believe the answer is:
homeopath
'healer' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'round in the family way' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'round' could be 'o' (o is a circular letter) and 'o' is present in the answer.
'the' could be 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects) and 't' is present in the answer.
'way' could be 'e' (Compass direction - East) and 'e' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'goes' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for homeopath that I've seen before include "Alternative practitioner" , "one offers treatment" , "Quack perhaps" , "he treats you, naturally" , "Health practitioner" .)
