Make light of a broken leg one morning (5)
I believe the answer is:
gleam
'make light' is the definition.
'gleam' can be an answer for 'light' (I have seen 'brief light' mean 'gleam' so perhaps 'light' could also mean 'gleam'). I'm unsure of the 'make' bit.
'broken leg one morning' is the wordplay.
'broken' indicates anagramming the letters.
'one morning' becomes 'am' (as in 12:00 AM).
'leg' anagrammed gives 'gle'.
'gle'+'am'='GLEAM'
'of a' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for gleam that I've seen before include "Glint" , "shaft" , "Brief shining" , "Glow of light" , "Shine brightly" .)
