Manage to extract some financial assistance (3,3)
I believe the answer is:
eke out
This might be a double definition.
'manage' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'extract some financial assistance' is the second definition.
'eke out' can be an answer for 'extract' (thesaurus). I'm unsure of the 'some financial assistance' bit.
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eke out that I've seen before include "Make (meagre supplies) last" , "Just about manage to make a living" , "Make last, maybe supplement" , "Make it last, like a resource" , "Economise" .)
