Unwilling to give much for a bit of help (4)
I believe the answer is:
loth
'unwilling' is the definition.
('loth' can be similar in meaning to 'unwilling')
'give much for a bit of help' is the wordplay.
'give much' becomes 'lot' (lotting is a kind of giving. I am not sure about the 'much' bit.**).
'for' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'a bit of' suggests taking the first letters.
The initial letter of 'help' is 'h'.
'lot'+'h'='LOTH'
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for loth that I've seen before include "Unwilling to obey" , "Reluctant, unwilling" , "Reluctant or averse" , "Not keen" , "Reluctant or disinclined" .)
