I tried a more orderly arrangement (6)
I believe the answer is:
tidier
'i tried a more orderly arrangement' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'i tried a more orderly' is the wordplay.
'a more' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (some letters added to the previous ones).
'orderly' indicates anagramming the letters.
'i'+'tried'='itried'
'itried' with letters rearranged gives 'TIDIER'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tidier that I've seen before include "Trigger" , "More methodical" , "not so disorderly" , "More trim" , "More neat and orderly" .)
