Height, not length, taking time over special views (9)
I believe the answer is:
attitudes
'views' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for attitudes that I've seen before include "Postures or viewpoints" , "with antagonistic manner" , "feelings" , "Postures on dance floors" , "Mental positions" .)
