We possibly get rid of the unconventional (5)
I believe the answer is:
weird
'unconventional' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'we possibly get rid' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'we' is present in the answer.
an anagram of 'rid' is 'ird' which is present in the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'of the' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for weird that I've seen before include "Strikingly odd or unusual" , "behaving erratically?" , "Unearthly" , "Quirky" , "Rum" .)
