Please pass a different way (6)
I believe the answer is:
elapse
'pass a different way' is the definition.
'elapse' can be an answer for 'pass' (synonyms). I'm not sure about the 'a different way' bit.
'please' is the wordplay.
'please' can be anagrammed to 'ELAPSE'.
Though, I am not clear how this is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for elapse that I've seen before include "Pass away - asleep (anag)" , "'Pass by, as time (6)'" , "Slip away" , "(Of time) go by" , "Glide by" .)
