Willing to accommodate but capable of having the last word? (8)
I believe the answer is:
amenable
'willing' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'accommodate but capable of having the last word?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'capable' could be 'able' (similar in meaning) and 'able' is found in the answer.
'word?' could be 'amen' (I have seen 'Word of agreement' mean 'amen' so perhaps 'word' could also mean 'amen') and 'amen' is located in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for amenable that I've seen before include "Nameable as being willing to be controlled" , "Willing to yield or be influenced" , "Helpful" , "Easily persuaded or controlled" , "Prepared to fall in with others' plans" .)
