Get ready and shave beforehand? (7)
I believe the answer is:
prepare
'get' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'ready and shave beforehand?' is the wordplay.
'ready' becomes 'prep' (I've seen this in another clue).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'shave beforehand?' becomes 'are' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'prep'+'are'='PREPARE'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for prepare that I've seen before include "Make ready or suitable" , "[GET READY] (3 of 3)" , "study" , "get ready for something new" , "Make (something) ready" .)
