Unwrap tiny tapered structure to give them an idea (7)
I believe the answer is:
inspire
'give them an idea' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'unwrap tiny tapered structure' is the wordplay.
'unwrap' indicates the central letters (I've seen 'unwrapping' mean this (letters which 'wrap' the word are removed)).
'tapered structure' becomes 'spire' (spire is a kind of structure. I am not sure about the 'tapered' bit.).
The central letters of 'tiny' are 'in'.
'in'+'spire'='INSPIRE'
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for inspire that I've seen before include "Fill with confidence - be the origin of" , "Fill with creative purpose" , "Give rise to (a feeling)" , "Fill with creativity" , "Stimulate person to adventurous thought or deed" .)
