'taps another way' is the definition.
'pats' can be an answer for 'taps' (I've seen this in another clue). I am not sure about the 'another way' bit.

'taps another way' is the wordplay.
'another way' indicates an anagram.
'taps' anagrammed gives 'PATS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for pats that I've seen is " Light touches or strokes".)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
