Indecisive writing journal – change article to be definite (7)
I believe the answer is:
dithery
'indecisive' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'writing journal change article to be definite' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'writing' could be 'r' (one of the traditional three R's of education) and 'r' is found within the answer.
'article' could be 'the' (the definite article) and 'the' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'diy' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for dithery that I've seen before include "Quavery" , "Uncertain" , "Unsure" , "Hesitating" , "Indecisive" .)
