You are texting cautiously - or otherwise? (8)
I believe the answer is:
urgently
'otherwise?' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are adverbs. Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'you are texting cautiously' is the wordplay.
'you are texting' becomes 'ur' (abbreviation for 'you are' when texting).
'cautiously' becomes 'gently' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'ur'+'gently'='URGENTLY'
'or' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for urgently that I've seen before include "without delay" , "With speedy attention" , "with haste" , "Earnestly and insistently" , "Immediately, with pressing need" .)
