Domains in which queen backed charitable donations (6)
I believe the answer is:
realms
'domains' is the definition.
(I know this)
'which queen backed charitable donations' is the wordplay.
'which' becomes 'e' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'queen' becomes 'r' (abbreviation for regina, e.g. in ER ).
'backed' is a reversal indicator.
'charitable donations' becomes 'alms' (I've seen this before).
'e'+'r'='er'
'er' in reverse letter order is 're'.
're'+'alms'='REALMS'
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for realms that I've seen before include "Domains - provinces" , "Domains ruled by king or queen" , "Kingdoms, or fields of interest" , "areas of interest" , "Kingdoms, domains" .)
