There's little to get in the way, honey (5)
I believe the answer is:
sweet
'honey' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'there's little to get in the way' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'little' could be 'wee' (similar in meaning) and 'wee' is found within the answer.
'the' could be 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects) and 't' is found within the answer.
'way' could be 's' (Compass direction - South) and 's' is located in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sweet that I've seen before include "Dulcet - dessert" , "winning" , "Ewes cycle it (anag) -- herb (myrrh)" , "S [SWEET] , basically" , "Cute" .)
