Observing number given money? Good (6)
I believe the answer is:
noting
'observing number given money? good' is the definition.
'noting' can be an answer for 'observing' (note can mean to observe or notice). I'm unsure of the 'number given money? good' bit.
'observing number given money? good' is the wordplay.
'observing number' becomes 'no' (abbreviation for 'number'. I am not sure about the 'observing' bit.).
'given' says to put letters next to each other.
'money?' becomes 'tin' (old-fashioned slang term for money).
'good' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'no'+'tin'+'g'='NOTING'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for noting that I've seen before include "Observing or taking down" , "Seeing" , "Paying close attention to something" , "Making brief record as memory aid" , "Making brief record of something" .)
