Move as rivers overwhelm English hotel (7)
I believe the answer is:
rehouse
'move as rivers overwhelm english hotel' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'move as rivers overwhelm english hotel' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'english' could be 'e' (abbreviation) and 'e' is located in the answer.
'hotel' could be 'h' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.) and 'h' is present in the answer.
'move' could be 'rouse' (rousing is a kind of moving) and 'rouse' is found in the remaining letters.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rehouse that I've seen before include "Accommodate elsewhere" , "Provide with new abode" , "find us fresh living quarters" , "Provide with fresh accommodation" , "Put in new accommodation" .)
