Overturned pot plant containing artist note left exactly (10)
I believe the answer is:
accurately
'exactly' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'overturned pot plant containing artist note left' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'artist' could be 'ra' (Royal Academician, member of Royal Academy of Arts) and 'ra' is found within the answer.
'note' could be 'ut' (historical name for the musical note 'do') and 'ut' is located in the remaining letters.
'left' could be 'l' (common abbreviation) and 'l' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for accurately that I've seen before include "in every detail" , "as result at 16A 25 24 [LARGE HADRON COLLIDER] is best recorded!" .)
