Inspired article in "Money” (8)
I believe the answer is:
breathed
'inspired article in money' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with communicating as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'article in money' is the wordplay.
'article' becomes 'the' (the definite article in English).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'money' becomes 'bread' (bread is slang for money).
'the' placed within 'bread' is 'BREATHED'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for breathed that I've seen before include "was whispering" , "Inhaled and exhaled" .)
