whoosh

'not in silence' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I can't understand how one could define the other.

'possibly show round the house' is the wordplay.
'possibly' indicates anagramming the letters.
'round' indicates putting letters inside.
'the house' becomes 'ho' (abbreviation for house).
'show' with letters rearranged gives 'wosh'.
'wosh' enclosing 'ho' is 'WHOOSH'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for whoosh that I've seen before include "Move with a rushing sound" , "Rushing noise" .)
