Read half heartedly about how animals feed themselves? (6)
I believe the answer is:
browse
'read half' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to communication as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'heartedly about how animals feed themselves?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'heartedly' could be 'ow' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'ow' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for browse that I've seen before include "Look through in a random way, a bookshop perhaps" , "Read material online" , "Look at sites 13 ac" , "Graze - glance through a book, magazine etc" , "(Of animal) feed on leaves, twigs, etc." .)
