Can one ever go straight? (5)
I believe the answer is:
crook
This could be a double definition.
'can' is the first definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'one ever go straight?' is the second definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I don't see?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for crook that I've seen before include "Criminal - taken in hand by bishop" , "Bend; criminal; staff" , "Fence, perhaps" , "Twister" , "Swindler - crosier - ill (in Australia)" .)
