Move to avoid wife and dish up outside (6)
I believe the answer is:
swerve
'move to avoid' is the definition.
'wife and dish up outside' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'wife' could be 'w' (abbreviation) and 'w' is found within the answer.
'dish' could be 'serve' (synonyms) and 'serve' is located in the leftover letters.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for swerve that I've seen before include "Sharp turn" , "Change course abruptly" , "Divergence from course" , "Veer, turn sharply" , "Veer wildly" .)
