Show the way for terrible Russian pulled up beside farm entrance (8)
I believe the answer is:
navigate
'show the way' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are verbs in their base form, I don't see how one could define the other.
'terrible russian pulled up beside farm entrance' is the wordplay.
'terrible russian' becomes 'Ivan' (Ivan the Terrible).
'pulled up' says the letters should be written backwards.
'beside' says to put letters next to each other (I've seen this in other clues).
'farm entrance' becomes 'gate' (type of entrance. I am not sure about the 'farm' bit.).
'ivan' written backwards gives 'navi'.
'navi'+'gate'='NAVIGATE'
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for navigate that I've seen before include "Drive" , "Sail - find one's way" , "Move around while browsing the Internet" , "Go by sea" , "Set (a ship's) course" .)
