Chopped plums? (5)
I believe the answer is:
lumps
'chopped plums?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I don't understand how one could define the other.
'chopped plums?' is the wordplay.
'chopped' is an anagram indicator (letters chopped or smashed up).
'plums' is an anagram of 'LUMPS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lumps that I've seen before include "Puts up with" , "Chunks" , "Compact masses" , "Clods or swellings" .)
