Family taking drug - or not? (5)
I believe the answer is:
clean
'not?' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adverbs. Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?
'family taking drug' is the wordplay.
'family' becomes 'clan' (I've seen this before).
'taking' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'drug' becomes 'e' (E is another name for ecstasy).
'clan' enclosing 'e' is 'CLEAN'.
'or' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for clean that I've seen before include "Uncontaminated" , "Untarnished" , "Remove dirt or stain" , "Unspoiled" , "Not prohibited" .)
