Verbal communication one's used in Dutch classes? (9)
I believe the answer is:
discourse
'verbal communication' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'one's used in dutch classes?' is the wordplay.
'one's' becomes 'is' (Roman numeral).
'used in' indicates putting letters inside.
'dutch' becomes 'd' (common abbreviation).
'classes?' becomes 'course' (**).
'd'+'course'='dcourse'
'is' placed inside 'dcourse' is 'DISCOURSE'.
(Other definitions for discourse that I've seen before include "Communication verbally" , "To hold a conversation" , "verbal communication" , "Written or spoken communication" , "Speech - conversation" .)
