Makes some admissions, but could be silent (4,2)
I believe the answer is:
lets in
'makes some admissions' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with social activities as well as being verbs in their -s form.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'could be silent' is the wordplay.
'could be' indicates an anagram.
'silent' is an anagram of 'LETS IN'.
'but' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Irish News.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
