Latin stars as skill returns (5)
I believe the answer is:
astra
'latin stars' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'as skill returns' is the wordplay.
'skill' becomes 'art' (I've seen this before).
'returns' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'art' back-to-front is 'tra'.
'as'+'tra'='ASTRA'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for astra that I've seen before include "Car" , "Per ardua ad - - (RAF motto)" .)
