Irish playwright certain to get heard? (4)
I believe the answer is:
shaw
'irish playwright' is the definition.
(George Bernard Shaw)
'get heard?' is the wordplay.
'get' becomes 'shore' (shoring is a kind of getting).
'heard?' shows a homophone (sound like).
'shore' sounds like 'SHAW'.
'certain to' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for shaw that I've seen before include "Pygmalion playwright" , "Playwright; small wood" , "Irish author" , "Irish playwright, d. 1950" , "George Bernard -, Irish dramatist" .)
