Sibling met Barbie's friend and got smashed (6)
I believe the answer is:
broken
'smashed' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'sibling met barbie's friend' is the wordplay.
'sibling' becomes 'bro' (I've seen this before).
'met' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'barbie's friend' becomes 'ken' (I've seen this in another clue).
'bro'+'ken'='BROKEN'
'and got' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for broken that I've seen before include "faulty" , "Smashed, in pieces" , "Fractured, damaged" , "Busted, damaged" , "Shattered, perhaps emotionally" .)
