As are mum and dad, running this way and that? (11)
I believe the answer is:
palindromic
This clue might be a double definition.
'as are mum' is the first definition.
I know that 'mum' relates to this answer.
'dad running this way and that?' is the second definition.
The answer and definition are not the same part of speech. However, I know that 'dad' relates to this answer.
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for palindromic that I've seen before include "like 51 [TENET]" , "Like mum, dad and sis, but not bro?" , "Like rotator, deified" , "Reading the same backwards and forwards" , "Like the words "deed" or "rotor"" .)
