Prosecute for misuse? (3)
I believe the answer is:
sue
This might be a double definition.
'prosecute' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'misuse?' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I don't understand how one could define the other.
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sue that I've seen before include "Susan (dim.)" , "Bring charges against - girl" , "Charge" , "Proceed legally against (someone)" , "Make a case against" .)
