I gave weapons to such a bandit? (3-5)
I believe the answer is:
one-armed
'i gave weapons to' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'a bandit?' is the wordplay.
'a' becomes 'one'.
'bandit?' becomes 'armed' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'one'+'armed'='ONE-ARMED'
'such' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for one-armed that I've seen is " A slot machine is considered to be this type of bandit".)
