Works appear rash, to put things another way (10)
I believe the answer is:
paraphrase
'put things another way' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'works appear rash' is the wordplay.
'works' is an anagram indicator (work can mean to twist or convulse).
'appear'+'rash'='appearrash'
'appearrash' is an anagram of 'PARAPHRASE'.
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for paraphrase that I've seen before include "summary" , "Put in other words" , "put it in a different way" , "rewording" , "Reword" .)
