Show ill-will again as a bit of a relief (7)
I believe the answer is:
respite
'bit of a relief' is the definition.
'respite' can be an answer for 'relief' (respite is a kind of relief). I am not sure about the 'bit of a' bit.
'show ill-will again as a' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'again' could be 're' (prefix meaning 'again') and 're' is located in the answer.
'ill will' could be 'spite' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'spite' is found within the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for respite that I've seen before include "Break from doing something" , "Short break" , "Period of temporary relief" , "Brief let-up" , "Pause from exertion, etc" .)
