Scythe around evenly relaid segments of grass (6)
I believe the answer is:
meadow
'grass' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'scythe around evenly relaid' is the wordplay.
'scythe' becomes 'mow' (I've seen this before).
'around' indicates putting letters inside.
'evenly' indicates alternate letters (the letters in even-numbered positions).
The alternate letters of 'relaid' are 'ead'.
'mow' going around 'ead' is 'MEADOW'.
'segments of' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for meadow that I've seen before include "Low ground near river" , "it's green here" , "Grassy field" , "In rural location" , "Tract of cultivated grassland" .)
