Dodgy hip, so rests hip replacement? (10)
I believe the answer is:
prosthesis
'hip replacement?' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'dodgy hip so rests' is the wordplay.
'dodgy' indicates anagramming the letters (a dodgy or wrong order of the letters).
'hip'+'so'+'rests'='hipsorests'
'hipsorests' is an anagram of 'PROSTHESIS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for prosthesis that I've seen before include "Part replacement" , "Artificial body part" , "False part" , "artificial substitute" , "This may supply missing part" .)
