Walk a short way with sailorly gait (6)
I believe the answer is:
stroll
'walk' is the definition.
(I know that stroll is a type of walk)
'a short way with sailorly gait' is the wordplay.
'a short way' becomes 'st' (abbreviation for street; 'short' suggests a short form).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'sailorly gait' becomes 'roll' (roll is a kind of gait. I am not sure about the 'sailorly' bit.).
'st'+'roll'='STROLL'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for stroll that I've seen before include "A casual, relaxing walk" , "gentle pace" , "Promenade" , "A pleasant and leisurely walk" , "Amble or ramble" .)
