Awfully bashful Pound papped with the help of this? (5,4)
I believe the answer is:
flash bulb
'papped with the help of this?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'awfully bashful pound' is the wordplay.
'awfully' indicates an anagram.
'pound' becomes 'lb' (abbreviation for the unit of weight).
'bashful' is an anagram of 'flashbu'.
'flashbu'+'lb'='FLASH-BULB'
Can you help me to learn more?
