How, originally, we turned the corner in New York (5)
I believe the answer is:
newly
'how' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adverbs. Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'originally we turned the corner in new york' is the wordplay.
'originally' indicates anagramming the letters.
'turned the corner' becomes 'l' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'new york' becomes 'ny'.
'we' is an anagram of 'ew'.
'ew'+'l'='ewl'
'ewl' put into 'ny' is 'NEWLY'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for newly that I've seen is " Freshly, very recently".)
