Create image with line in slow speech (5)
I believe the answer is:
drawl
'slow speech' is the definition.
(drawl means a slow or lazy style of speech)
'create image with line' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'create' could be 'draw' (drawing is a kind of creating) and 'draw' is found in the answer.
'line' could be 'l' (used when specifying particular lines from a poem) and 'l' is present in the answer.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for drawl that I've seen before include "Affected speech" , "Jimmy Stewart spoke with one" , "Slow speech with prolonged vowels" , "Speak slowly and affectedly" , "manner of speaking" .)
