Quarrel later, having recalled some pieces being longer (6)
I believe the answer is:
taller
'longer' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are comparative adjectives. Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'quarrel later having recalled some pieces' is the wordplay.
'some pieces' indicates a hidden word (I've seen 'piece of' mean this).
'recalled' is a reversal indicator (to recall can mean to bring something back).
'rellat' is hidden in the letters of 'quarrel later having'.
'rellat' in reverse letter order is 'TALLER'.
'being' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for taller that I've seen before include "Higher in stature" , "Greater in stature" .)
