Achieve great heights using oars (4)
I believe the answer is:
soar
'achieve great heights' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'using oars' is the wordplay.
'using' is an anagram indicator (the letters used in a different way).
'oars' is an anagram of 'SOAR'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for soar that I've seen before include "Increase rapidly" , "Fly high into the air" , "lift" , "go high" , "Rise; sounds like painful" .)
