Wife spelt out way to reject potential date? (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
swipe left
'way to reject potential date?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'wife spelt out' is the wordplay.
'out' is an anagram indicator (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'wife'+'spelt'='wifespelt'
'wifespelt' anagrammed gives 'SWIPE LEFT'.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
