Randomly do a hunt for benefit payment? (4-3)
I believe the answer is:
hand-out
'benefit payment?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'randomly do a hunt' is the wordplay.
'randomly' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'roaming randomly' mean this).
'do'+'a'+'hunt'='doahunt'
'doahunt' anagrammed gives 'HAND-OUT'.
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for hand-out that I've seen before include "Notes givne in class - with outstretched palm" , "Distribute - press release(4,3;7)" , "Something given free of charge, maybe a leaflet" , "Donation to the needy" , "Something distributed free of charge, or notes given in class" .)
