Peace offering for girl at local bank (5,6)
I believe the answer is:
olive branch
'peace offering' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'girl at local bank' is the wordplay.
'girl' becomes 'Olive' (girl's name).
'at' says to put letters next to each other.
'local bank' becomes 'branch' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'olive'+'branch'='OLIVE BRANCH'
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for olive branch that I've seen before include "offered to cool things?" , "Peace gesture" , "Child reading prayer book" , "Symbol of peace" , "conciliatory gesture" .)
