Want one fed no starters (4)
I believe the answer is:
need
'want' is the definition.
(I know that want can be written as need)
'one fed no starters' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'ne' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'no starters' means to remove the first letter (I've seen 'no starter' mean this).
'fed' with its first letter taken off is 'ed'.
'ne'+'ed'='NEED'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for need that I've seen before include "state of distress" , "'miss'" , "Penury" , "Want - require(ment)" , "Exigency" .)
