One helps you stop and live around playboy’s house (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
brake shoe
'one helps you stop' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'live around playboy's house' is the wordplay.
'live' becomes 'be' (synonyms).
'around' is an insertion indicator.
'playboy's' becomes 'rake's' (old-fashioned term for a womanising man).
'house' becomes 'ho' (abbreviation for house).
'rakes'+'ho'='rakesho'
'be' placed around 'rakesho' is 'BRAKE-SHOE'.
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for brake shoe that I've seen before include "Part of vehicle's wheel system" , "make you slower?" , "A means for stopping" .)
