Do better than street kid, losing right man in order (8)
I believe the answer is:
capuchin
'man in order' is the definition.
'capuchin' can be an answer for 'man' (thesaurus). I am unsure of the 'in order' bit.
'do better than street kid losing right' is the wordplay.
'do better than' becomes 'cap' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'street kid' becomes 'urchin' (I've seen this in another clue).
'losing' suggests deleting specific letters.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'urchin' with 'r' removed is 'uchin'.
'cap'+'uchin'='CAPUCHIN'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for capuchin that I've seen before include "Franciscan friar - cha in cup (anag)" , "China cup for kind of friar" , "Friar; cloak and hood" , "Religious person" , "Friar; monkey" .)
