How to get at isles, possibly? (3,4)
I believe the answer is:
set sail
'how' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'get at isles possibly?' is the wordplay.
'get' says to put letters next to each other.
'possibly?' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'possibly' mean this).
'at' next to 'isles' is 'atisles'.
'atisles' is an anagram of 'SET SAIL'.
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for set sail that I've seen before include "Embark on a voyage by ship" , "left land behind" , "Leave port (by ship)" , "Leave for (sea) voyage" , "have started journey" .)
