Some net return (4)
I believe the answer is:
part
This might be a double definition.
'some' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'net return' is the second definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I can't see?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for part that I've seen before include "Separate - role" , "Piece; divide" , "unemployed actor hopes for" , "Sever; portion" , "Member" .)
