Devoted lady in an unusual position (3)
I believe the answer is:
nun
'devoted lady' is the definition.
'nun' can be an answer for 'lady' (I have seen 'Religious lady ' mean 'nun' so perhaps 'lady' could also mean 'nun'). I am not sure about the 'devoted' bit.
'in an unusual position' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'NUN' can be found hidden inside 'an unusual position'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for nun that I've seen before include "Woman with a habit" , "Domestic fancy pigeon" , "Joshua's father" , "One in holy order" , "Fancy pigeon variety" .)
