Only a brave person will give her a ring (4)
I believe the answer is:
hero
'only a brave person' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'give her a ring' is the wordplay.
'give' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'a ring' becomes 'o' (letter resembling a ring).
'her' next to 'o' is 'HERO'.
'will' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for hero that I've seen before include "Chief good guy in a story" , "Exemplar" , "Lover of Leander" , "Leander's love" , "eg Hercules" .)
