Meeting that may try a saint? (5)
I believe the answer is:
tryst
'meeting' is the definition.
(I know that tryst is a type of date)
'that may try a saint?' is the wordplay.
'that' becomes 't' (this could be a standard abbreviation I've not previously seen).
'may' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'might' mean this (I've seen this in other clues)).
'a saint?' becomes 's'.
'try'+'s'='trys'
'trys' with letters rearranged gives 'ryst'.
't'+'ryst'='TRYST'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tryst that I've seen before include "Secret rendezvous between lovers" , "An archaic lovers' meeting" , "meeting-place" , "Romantic rendezvous (literary)" , "Lump (of gold, etc)" .)
