Does she have a great day when the sun rises? (5)
I believe the answer is:
venus
'does she' is the definition.
'Venus' can be an answer for 'she'. I am not certain of the 'does' bit.
'a great day when the sun rises?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
an anagram of 'sun' is 'nus' which is within the answer.
'a great day' could be 've' (abbreviation for Victory in Europe Day) and 've' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'have' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for venus that I've seen before include "Roman goddess of love" , "Second nearest planet to the sun" , "Evening star" , "Brightest planet" , "Heavenly body" .)
