Filled perhaps or not filled (3-3)
I believe the answer is:
ill-fed
'not filled' is the definition.
The answer and definition are not the same part of speech. However, past participle verbs and adjectives can sometimes define each other.
'filled perhaps' is the wordplay.
'perhaps' is an anagram indicator.
'filled' is an anagram of 'ILL-FED'.
'or' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
