Start blazing away (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
catch fire
'start' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I can't understand how they can define each other.
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for catch fire that I've seen is " Get excited".)
I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
