What does this clue mean?
The vowel sound /əʊ/, as in the words "cone" and "note". (The presence of a long vowel is often signaled in spelling by a silent e that follows it, as in the examples here, or by the fact that a subsequent consonant is single rather than doubled, as for example in coning versus conning).
