See the star turn (4)

I believe the answer is:

spot

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'see' is the definition.
(to spot is to notice or catch sight of)

'the star turn' is the wordplay.
'the' becomes 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects).
'star' becomes 'ops' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'turn' says the letters should be written in reverse.
't'+'ops'='tops'
'tops' in reverse letter order is 'SPOT'.

Can you help me to learn more?
