Confirm accommodating a boy at a particular time of year (8)
I believe the answer is:
seasonal
'a particular time of year' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'confirm accommodating a boy' is the wordplay.
'confirm' becomes 'seal' (I've seen this in another clue).
'accommodating' indicates putting letters inside.
'boy' becomes 'son' (male child).
'a'+'son'='ason'
'seal' going around 'ason' is 'SEASONAL'.
'at' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for seasonal that I've seen before include "Changing according to the time of year" , "Occurring at a particular time of the year" , "Appropriate to the time of year" , "not wanted all year" , "Changing throughout the year" .)
