Studiously ignores stars outside hotel (5)
I believe the answer is:
shuns
'studiously ignores' is the definition.
'shuns' can be an answer for 'ignores' (I've seen this in another clue). I'm not sure about the 'studiously' bit.
'stars outside hotel' is the wordplay.
'stars' becomes 'suns' (suns are stars).
'outside' is an insertion indicator (some letters go outside others).
'hotel' becomes 'h' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'suns' going around 'h' is 'SHUNS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for shuns that I've seen before include "Eschews" , "Rebuffs" , "Persistently avoids" , "Spurns" , "Avoids deliberately" .)
