What's uttered by setter in court loudly (4)
I believe the answer is:
woof
'what's uttered by setter' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'court loudly' is the wordplay.
'court' becomes 'woo' (both can mean to romance someone).
'loudly' becomes 'f' (short for forte - 'loud' in music).
'woo'+'f'='WOOF'
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for woof that I've seen before include "As dog goes" , "Bark, yap" , "Barking sound" , "Cry of dog - texture of fabric" , "Barking noise" .)
