Encounter some chicken, say (4)
I believe the answer is:
meet
'encounter' is the definition.
(I know that encounter can be written as meet)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for meet that I've seen before include "Come upon" , "Hunt gathering" , "Confront" , "Come face to face with - it is proper" , "club" .)
