New girl meets head of Roedean? I don’t believe it! (5)
I believe the answer is:
never
'i don't believe it' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'new girl meets head of roedean?' is the wordplay.
'new' becomes 'n' (common abbreviation eg NT for New Testament).
'girl' becomes 'eve' ().
'meets' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'head of' says to take the initial letters.
The initial letter of 'roedean' is 'r'.
'n'+'eve'+'r'='NEVER'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for never that I've seen before include "Not ever" , "Not in a month of Sundays" , "At no time in the past or future" , "Under no circumstances" , "Strong negative" .)
