Silent eccentric permits entry (4,2)
I believe the answer is:
lets in
'permits entry' is the definition.
'lets in' can be an answer for 'permits' (letting in is a kind of permiting). I'm not sure about the 'entry' bit.
'silent eccentric' is the wordplay.
'eccentric' indicates anagramming the letters.
'silent' is an anagram of 'LETS IN'.
Can you help me to learn more?
