Warn of English obstructing PR guru (7)
I believe the answer is:
presage
'warn' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with communicating as well as being verbs in their base form.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'english obstructing pr guru' is the wordplay.
'english' becomes 'e' (abbreviation).
'obstructing' indicates putting letters inside (inserted letters interrupt or obstruct the word).
'guru' becomes 'sage' (synonyms).
'pr'+'sage'='prsage'
'e' put within 'prsage' is 'PRESAGE'.
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for presage that I've seen before include "Foretell" , "Be a sign or warning of (an event)" , "Be an advance sign of, portend" , "Portent" , "Forecast, foreshadow" .)
