The Clue was “A rotten meal, ultimately yucky, she argues! (8)”. The Answer was “ATTORNEY”. This is a partial “Anagram” clue. The first letter A is given and the last letter is Y, indicated by “ultimately” (meaning the last part of) yuckY. The anagrind is “MEAL” and it indicates that “ROTTEN” needs to be jumbled. The annotation is A {ROTTEN}* Y. The definition is “She argues”.
