Chap getting out of a manhole? (4)
I believe the answer is:
male
This clue might be a double definition.
'chap' is the first definition.
(chap can mean a man)
'out of a manhole?' is the second definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'getting' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for male that I've seen before include "man?" , "Maldives capital; masculine" , "Lame sort of fellow" , "A gender" , "One cannot have babies" .)
