An animal sound in outdoor area? One may take note of that (4,6)
I believe the answer is:
game warden
'one may take note of that' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.
'an animal sound in outdoor area?' is the wordplay.
'an' becomes 'a'.
'animal sound' becomes 'mew' (I've seen this before).
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'outdoor area?' becomes 'garden' (garden is a kind of area. I am not sure about the 'outdoor' bit.).
'a'+'mew'='amew'
'amew' placed within 'garden' is 'GAME WARDEN'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for game warden that I've seen before include "Wild animal guardian" , "Ranger" , "One employed to protect rhinos, say" , "Reserve keeper" , "reserve worker" .)
