It's fresh in many ways (3)
I believe the answer is:
dew
'ways' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how they can define each other.
'it's fresh in many' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'many' could be 'd' (Roman numeral for 500) and 'd' is located in the answer.
'it' could be 'e' ('e' can mean 'electronic' which is similar to 'IT') and 'e' is located in the answer.
A single letter 'w' remains which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for dew that I've seen before include "Night-time condensate" , "Early-morning moisture" , "Night-time moisture" , "Small drops of moisture" , "Night-time condensation" .)
