Look for adherent of religion, say (4)
I believe the answer is:
seek
This clue could be a double definition.
'look for' is the first definition.
(synonyms)
'adherent of religion say' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I don't see how one could define the other.
Can you help me to learn more?
