Wally returning container with end broken off (6)
I believe the answer is:
nitwit
'end broken off' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'wally returning container' is the wordplay.
'wally' becomes 'nit ' (I've seen this before).
'returning container' becomes 'wit' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'nit'+'wit'='NITWIT'
'with' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for nitwit that I've seen before include "Fool, idiot" , "Informally, a foolish person, featherbrain" , "Informally a stupid person, like funny flea?" , "dope" , "Louse egg with humour - silly fellow" .)
