Name tough to rewrite gets you nothing (6)
I believe the answer is:
nought
'you nothing' is the definition.
'nought' can be an answer for 'nothing' (synonyms). I'm not certain of the 'you' bit.
'name tough to rewrite' is the wordplay.
'name' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation e.g. on forms).
'to rewrite' indicates an anagram (I've seen 'rewriting' mean this).
'tough' with letters rearranged gives 'ought'.
'n'+'ought'='NOUGHT'
'gets' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for nought that I've seen before include "The digit 0" , "duck" , "Poetically nothing" , "Love" , "The figure 0" .)
