Crossword writer in sun at the end of the day? (6)
I believe the answer is:
setter
'crossword writer' is the definition.
'setter' can be an answer for 'writer' (the person that set this crossword). I'm unsure of the 'crossword' bit.
'sun at the end of the day?' is the wordplay.
'sun at' becomes 'set' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'the' becomes 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects).
'end of' says to hollow out the word (remove centre letters) (I've seen 'ends of' mean this).
'the day?' becomes 'Easter' (Easter is an example).
'easter' with its middle removed is 'er'.
'set'+'t'+'er'='SETTER'
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for setter that I've seen before include "Street (anag.)" , "I may pose a problem" , "One barking" , "cement, perhaps?" , "pointer" .)
