Reversal of spell after the first go? (9)
I believe the answer is:
turnabout
'reversal' is the definition.
(I know that reversal can be written as turnabout)
'spell after the first go?' is the wordplay.
'spell' becomes 'turn' (synonyms).
'after' says to put letters next to each other.
'the first go?' becomes 'about' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'turn'+'about'='TURNABOUT'
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for turnabout that I've seen before include "That makes a change" , "Total change of policy" , "change of heart" , "complete change of policy" .)
