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

'sarcastic' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'one fellow i see' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'one' could be 'i' (Roman numeral) and 'i' is found in the answer.
'fellow' could be 'ron' (masculine given name) and 'ron' is found within the answer.
'i' is found in the answer.
'see' could be 'c' (the word for the letter, according to Chambers) and 'c' is present in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'is' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
