Scoffs at, when accommodated in quarters (4)
I believe the answer is:
eats
'scoffs' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'at when accommodated in quarters' is the wordplay.
'when' becomes 'e' (I've seen this in other clues).
'accommodated' is an anagram indicator.
'in quarters' becomes 's' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'at'+'e'='ate'
'ate' is an anagram of 'eat'.
'eat'+'s'='EATS'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eats that I've seen before include "worries" , "Munches" , "Provisions" , "Food (slang)" , "Takes food" .)
