Crossword compiler for The Sun ? (6)
I believe the answer is:
setter
'crossword compiler' is the definition.
(someone who sets crosswords)
'the sun ?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'the' could be 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects) and 't' is found in the answer.
'sun' could be 's' (abbreviation) and 's' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for setter that I've seen before include "Canine" , "Dog trained to point at game" , "Crossword composer" , "I may pose a problem" , "Dog trained to scent game" .)
