Write a pointed article (3)
I believe the answer is:
pen
'write' is the definition.
(I know that write can be written as pen)
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pen that I've seen before include "'The ... is mightier than the sword'" , "International Association of poets, playwrights etc" , "American jug?" , "Writing implement" , "Female swan" .)
