Computer assistant in operating system is a godlike figure? (6)
I believe the answer is:
osiris
'a godlike figure?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
'computer assistant in operating system is' is the wordplay.
'computer assistant' becomes 'ri' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'operating system' becomes 'OS' (synonyms).
'os'+'is'='osis'
'ri' placed within 'osis' is 'OSIRIS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for osiris that I've seen before include "Egyptian god of the underworld" , "Egyptian deity" , "one held to be divine" , "dead judge?" , "underworld boss" .)
