Show compliance when told to go (6)
I believe the answer is:
assent
'show compliance' is the definition.
'assent' can be an answer for 'compliance' (I've seen this before). I am not sure about the 'show' bit.
'when told to go' is the wordplay.
'when' becomes 'as' (eg 'when I walked' means 'as I walked').
'told to go' becomes 'sent' (I've seen this in another clue).
'as'+'sent'='ASSENT'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for assent that I've seen before include "Acquiescence" , "Okay" , "Say yes" , "Permission" , "Agreement or concurrence" .)
