Not all come on silent journey to work (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

commute

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'journey to work' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'not all come on silent' is the wordplay.
'not all' means to remove the last letter (not all of the word).
'on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'silent' becomes 'mute' (synonyms).
'come' with its last letter taken off is 'com'.
'com'+'mute'='COMMUTE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for commute that I've seen before include "Travel regularly to work" , "make AC/DC split the > daily journey" , "Travel daily to work; mitigate" , "Exchange - travel to work" , "To reduce severity of the punishment" .)
