Pinch page after quick look (5)
I believe the answer is:
skimp
'pinch' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'page after quick look' is the wordplay.
'page' becomes 'p'.
'after' says to put letters next to each other.
'quick look' becomes 'skim' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'p' after 'skim' is 'SKIMP'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for skimp that I've seen before include "Use less than is needed, be penny-pinching" , "hasty" , "Work carelessly" , "Use less to economise" , "Cut back on resources" .)
