Necessarily poor and incomplete? (9)
I believe the answer is:
needfully
'necessarily' is the definition.
(I know that necessarily can be written as needfully)
'poor and incomplete?' is the wordplay.
'poor' becomes 'needful' (I've seen this before).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'incomplete?' becomes 'ly' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'needful'+'ly'='NEEDFULLY'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for needfully that I've seen is " Necessarily".)
